Newmai News Network Imphal | February 22 Scores of All Manipur Students’ Union (AMSU) members and womenfolk stormed the Raj Bhavan gate on Wednesday demanding disclosure of the details of the 'Framework Agreement' signed between the Centre and NSCN (IM). The protesters squatted in front of the Raj Bhavan gate where they clashed with police and security personnel manning it. The AMSU members and womenfolk also shouted several slogans demanding the yet-to-be declared details of the Naga peace accord. The 'Framework Agreement' was signed between the Government of India and the NSCN (IM) on August 3, 2015. But the details of the agreement are yet to be released. Since the signing of the 'Aframework Agreement', social organistions and political parties in Manipur have been demanding the Centre that the details of the agreement be publicised at the earliest time. Meanwhile, later in the evening today, a seven-member team of AMSU and leaders of the womenfolk called on Manipur Governor Dr Najma Heptulla at the Raj Bhavan. They urged Dr Heptulla that the Centre should release the details of the 'Framework Agreement' without delay. According to AMSU general secretary Manjit Sarangthem, the Governor demanded a memorandum from their side by today itself on the pressing demand and to forward the same to the Prime Minister and the President. “The Centre should present a white paper on the agreement or else AMSU will intensify agitation,” Manjit warned. He said the student body will not allow any alteration to Manipur’s territorial boundaries at any circumstance. Manjit accused NSCN (IM) and United Naga Council (UNC) of trying to instigate trouble between communities living together in Manipur. AMSU has been carrying out a campaign in Imphal to demand disclosure of the details of the 'Framework Agreement'. During an election rally at Thangmeiband Thau ground in Imphal on February 19, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh in his attempt to allay the fear of the people said that the 'Framework Agreement' would not harm the territorial integrity of Manipur.
