TURA, Feb 20: An FIR has been registered against a leader of the NPP from Williamnagar for allegedly distorting a Christian devotional song held sacred by the community, and replacing the word ‘Jesus’ with ‘NPP’, in a video uploaded on social media.
The FIR was filed by UDP candidate from South Tura, John Leslee K Sangma with the officer in-charge of Tura Police Station on Monday.
In the uploaded video which has already gone viral, general secretary of the NPP from Williamnagar, Georgeman Marak, along with five others is seen singing their version of the devotional song — ‘I have decided to follow Jesus’. However, the word ‘Jesus’ was replaced with the word NPP.
“This is a song which we as Christians sing to re-affirm our faith in Lord Jesus Christ and the Christian way of life. However, the NPP leader and five others have replaced the word Jesus with NPP to glorify the party and its leader, Chief Minister Conrad Sangma,” Leslee said, adding it is an insult and shows contempt towards the Christian faith and religion.
Asserting that their action is punishable under Section 295 A of the IPC, the UDP candidate sought against the NPP leader and all those involved in the act.
