Kevijau colony sets ‘common platform’ for aspirants

Dimapur, Feb. 10 (EMN): In a commendable effort, the council members of Kevijau colony in Dimapur on Sat. have decided to organise a “common platform” during which candidates from the constituency under which the locality falls can address voters from the colony one at a time. A meeting of the Kevijau council on Sat. decided that no political canvassing or establishing of ‘election camps’ would be allowed within the colony. This was informed through a press release. The colony falls under Dimapur II constituency—which is set to witness a triangular fight among Moatosho Longkumer (NPF), Supulepten (NDPP) and Dr. Amos Lkr (AAP). The council has set Feb. 16, 2 pm at Kevijau council hall for the candidates to speak about their manifesto with voters. It has resolved to stand for clean election and the principle of ‘one man, one vote.’ Accordingly the council resolved also not to allow “outsiders” enter polling stations at Kevijau, except for polling officials on the day of polling. “No posters, banners shall be allowed to put (sic) in the colony,” it stated while warning that the council shall “take appropriate action against any defaulters.”
