Cong promises revocation of AFSPA in Manipur
Ahead of Manipur polls which are slated to be held on March 4 and 8, Congress in its manifesto has promised to make efforts to strive for revocation of AFSPA from the entire state. Notably, activist Irom Sharmila, who had undertaken a 16-year-long hunger strike against AFSPA, is contesting election against Manipur CM and Congress leader Okram Ibobi Singh.
