Diphu, May 15 (EMN): The Inglongpo Kangthur Asong (IKA), a socio-economic and educated youth organisation of No. 20 Singhason MAC constituency on Saturday coming down heavily on local political leaders for depriving the rights and privileges of the poor and downtrodden innocent village folks of the constituency. The organisation appeals the political parties to act cautiously while giving party ticket (in the coming KAAC election) for the interest of general people of the constituency.
While speaking to media persons, Dr. Lipson Rongpi, general secretary of IKA lamented over the conservative attitude and vested politic played by the so-called political leaders in the constituency for so long. “God is watching over us and will be rewarded according to the work we have performed on this earth. Though our Constituency is proximity with District HQ, condition of the people is really heart throbbing and development is nil due to incompetent and old-fashioned local political leaders,” expressed Rongpi.
“Even during the regime of ASDC from 1986 we were neglected and nothing change was seen in the Constituency for more than 15 years, when the Congress (I) took over the Council in 2001 people in the constituency has a great hope that new dawn will begins in social, economic and all round development to the underprivileged people of Singhason but no improvement was seen for the past 15 years. Now, the BJP is in power at the Council and have local MAC to oversee the developmental works but no ‘Parivartan’ has been experienced so far by the people of Singhason as promised by saffron party. The ‘Parivatan’ we experience is, the people are becoming poorer day by day. All the government offices in the constituency are left non-functional, exploitation of forest and natural resources on the rampant, educated youths (300+) are left with no jobs. Some of them are engaged in daily labour to support their family,” what a disappointment said Rongpi.
The IKA appeal the chief of all political parties leader (either regional or national) to carefully offer ticket to candidates for No. 20 Singhason MAC constituency which is local, fresh, good moral conduct above all God fearing and who will really have a heart to work, uplift the poor and oppressed people of Singhason. He added that we have full hope that this time the people of Singhason will have a candidate who will stoop down to the lowly and work for the upliftment of the poor. People should look at the heart of the candidate not the party. Party will come and go but the good heart will remain with us for years to come.
