Health Minister Ampareen Lyngdoh today urged Voice of the People Party (VPP) President Ardent Basaiawmoit to end his indefinite hunger strike
Lyngdoh visited Basaiawmoit, who has been sitting at the parking lot near the Additional Secretariat here with a demand to review the reservation policy.
“I came here as a concerned citizen of the state to request Ardent to withdraw his agitation. This is not good for the state. We need to talk,” she said to Basaiawmoit.
“I felt it was needed for me to come, so I came. I have done my duty. I have a right to come here to request him to kindly withdraw his agitation,” she told reporters.
She also expressed concern about the health of the VPP chief that has now entered the third day.
