Imphal, March 03 2015 : As decided by the State Cabinet yesterday, the ongoing session of Manipur Legislative Assembly has been extended by two days so that the Bill for protection of indigenous people and regulation of immigration can be tabled and passed by the House.
The ongoing Assembly session was earlier scheduled to be adjourned today.
However, taking due note of the mounting pressure from civil society organisations particularly JCILPS against the Government’s failure to table a Bill for protection of indigenous people in the State Assembly, the Business Advisory Committee held a meeting in the Speaker’s chamber this morning and decided to extend the ongoing session by two more days.
The BAC’s decision was conveyed to all members of the House by Chief Minister O Ibobi who is also the leader of the House.
He also gave a detailed clarification on the Government’s failure to table the Bill in time.

Earlier ahead of the BAC’s meeting, a CLP meeting chaired by Chief Minister O Ibobi was held at around 10 am.
The meeting adopted a decision to table the particular Bill in the House after obtaining consensus of all CLP members.
The ongoing session will be resumed on March 13 and it will be adjourned on March 16 .
The Bill would be tabled in the House on March 13 and it would be passed on March 16 if there is no objection, Ibobi stated on the floor of the House today.
