The state units of several Left parties have launched a week-long democratic movement against corruption and other social ills in Manipur. The stir will be carried out in a phased manner at all district headquarters of the state.
On Friday, activists of the CPI, CPI (M), Forward Bloc and RSP kicked off the first phase of the movement at Aribam Mandhop in the Singjamei area of Imphal. During the campaign, the parties will call for adoption of an effective Lokpal Bill legislation, a national judicial commission to curb corruption in the judiciary and action against corruption by big businessmen in connivance with politicians.
L Thoiren Singh, the assistant secretary of Manipur state council of CPI , said the campaign will seek implementation of electoral reforms, checking use of money in elections, unearthing of black money and bringing back illegal money stashed abroad.
