  I also wonder in case of all 'natonal' 'religious' or such other 'upheavals' 
why the women-folk are always required to adhere to the 'national' 'religious' 
dress code while the men-folk can do with or without whatever they like. I have 
failed to understand the logic. It must be inherent in the 'feeling' itself 
that leads to such upsurges.( Iran, Assam or Manipur for example)

  These self-righteous, sons-of-soil, are hell-bent in getting rid of these 
'dangerous desuali' elements and their dirty habits (imported). But, wearing 
jeans is fine (see photo). After all, jeans, hamburgers, and moving ones hips 
to a western number are all a part of Manipuri culture, isn't it? 
   
  I say, good for them and hobo diok!

  The news and a photograph showing destruction of 'imported' meethapatti made 
my friend CA Devajit Sharma remark: 'Only drugs will be allowed in Manipur 
henceforth'.

  RPF warns against import of meethapati
>From Sobhapati Samom
 IMPHAL,Oct 25 – Manipur-based outfit Revolutionary People's Front (RPF) has 
warned the Indian Airlines and other transport agencies against helping in 
bringing the banned meethapati (betel leaf) into the State in future. 

The import and sale of meethapati has been banned in Manipur since October 15 
last.The outfit has imposed a blanket ban on import and sale of zarda, khaini 
and talab in Manipur since the last four years. The outfit said those whosoever 
involved in import and sale of the meethapati, violating the ban order, would 
be "considered for punishment". 

The outfit also claimed the responsibility for killing one non-local Prasad 
(35), who worked as an agent of meethapati, zarda and khaini at Ningthoukhong 
in Manipur's Bishnupur district. He was awarded capital punishment on Monday at 
around 6.30 pm for failing to heed to the repeated warnings of the outfit.

In a statement, assistant secretary, communication and publicity of the outfit, 
Lily Leima said that Prasad had been working as an agent of zarda, khaini and 
meethapati in the State for the last 15 years. 

In spite of the ban imposed on zarda and khaini by the outfit long ago and the 
subsequent ban on meethapati since October 15 this year, Prasad continued to 
supply these harmful substances with complete disregard to the warnings given 
to him, the statement said.
