NCP Manipur dares ministers, MLAs to declare assets

Imphal, Dec 27 (UNI) The Manipur unit of the NCP has asked the ruling ministers and the MLAs to declare their assets.

Party Vice-President N Radhakanta said here today that ''the foul play was suspected in the recent declarations of results for police and medical staff exams and Chief Minister Okram Ibobi Singh was aware of the whole affair.'' The ruling ministers and the MLAs had strongly opposed the selected list and the Chief Minister himself said "it was an internal matter which would be resolved".

The Congress and the CPI, which are the partners of the ruling Secular Progressive Front government, should not give cold shoulder to its responsibilities.

Mr Radhakanta also urged the ruling MLAs and ministers to declare all their assets before the ninth Assembly elections scheduled to be held early next year.
