Naga economic blockade News
In an hour-long meeting on Saturday morning, the Congress Legislature Party (CLP) took the decision to outlaw the UNC.
"The blockade from October 30 is due to the ineptitude of Chief Minister Ibobi Singh and Congress party," he said.
The 511 trucks loaded with fuel and other consumer items, building materials and medicines were escorted over 220-km throughout the mountainous NH-37.
BJP spokesperson N Biren appealed the UNC to withdraw the blockade which entered its 56th day today and sought "another forum" to achieve its demands.
MoS Home Kiren Rijiju said it is completely unacceptable to have such kinds of blockades in which thousands are suffering and both central and Manipur governments will work together to end it.
However the arsonists did not target the vehicle drivers and passengers. As fire tenders could not reach the spot, the vehicles could not be salvaged.
