Meghalaya MLA urges Cachar Youth BJP leader to withdraw FIR against KSU Chief

Meghalaya MLA Sanbor Shullai has sought Himanta Biswa Sarma's intervention into the withdrawal of an FIR filed by Cachar BJP Youth Morcha President Amitesh Chakraborty against KSU president Lambokstar Marngar.

BJP MLA Shullai has further urged Cachar BJP Youth Morcha president Amitesh Chakraborty to withdraw the FIR filed against Marngar.

Shullai wrote a letter to Assam Minister Himanta Sarma seeking his intervention into the matter.

The incident “still continues to be the centre of attention and the reason for the current unpleasant and unwanted developments”, Shullai stated in the letter.

“An incident like this, that unfortunately happened at Ichamati should have been prevented and avoided at all costs. This has led to an uneasy calm in the city of Shillong,” Shullai mentioned.

“The matter is a state affair and involvement or influence of elements from outside the state is not required. The matter is a local concern and should be best resolved peacefully by involving all the stakeholders of the state.

“Thus as a responsible MLA of the BJP, I would request the president of BJYM Cachar District, Assam to kindly withdraw the FIR in best interest of the people of the state,” Shullai said in the letter.

“This will help in preventing downslide of the party and its image among its local bases.

“Rather we should look into a peaceful way of helping and working with local authorities and agencies to tackle the illegal immigrants issue and help strengthen the communal harmony prevalent among the genuine non-tribals and the tribals of the state,” Shullai stated.

Shullai has requested Chakraborty to withdraw the FIR filed against the KSU president Lambokstar Marngar “in the best interest of the people, state and the party”.

“The matter is of serious concern and would require your kind intervention to ensure that peace and communal harmony prevails in the state,” Shullai mentioned in his letter to Himanta Biswa Sarma.
