Realisation Day observed in Manipur

Imphal, April 17 (UNI) Realisation day, organized by the All Manipur Students' Union (AMSU), was observed in Manipur today.

Large number of students and members of AMSU converged at Pishum, Imphal and offered floral tributes to those killed on April 17, 1980.

The 1980s had witnessed violence resulting from the strong anti-foreigners movement here.

Former AMSU leaders and members, who attended the function, praised the sacrifice made by the student leaders in 1980 to protect the region from an influx and stop large-scale immigration.
