I want to be Manipur's Chief Minister: Irom Sharmila
After ending her 16-year-long fast against Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, 1958, on Tuesday, human rights activist Irom Sharmila said, "I want to be the Chief Minister of Manipur." She added, "People remain negative towards me about my new decision." When asked how she feels being called Manipur's goddess, Sharmila said, "I don't like that identity, I'm a human being."
