Manipur CM heads for Delhi

Imphal: Manipur Chief Minister Okram Ibobi Singh, accompanied by an all-party delegation, today left for New Delhi to apprise the Centre about the need for Presidential assent to convert three Inner Line Permit System-related Bills to Acts.
The CM is joined by representatives of BJP, LJD, JD(U), CPI(M), AAP and others including recently inducted State Congress president T N Haokip, a spokesman of the all-party delegation said.
The team will be joined by few other Manipuri politicians who are already stationed in the national capital, the spokesman said. The three Bills were passed last year in August after months of mass movement to protect the indigenous populace from the illegal immigrants in the state, including those from neighbouring Myanmar.
