Imphal, February 9 : The All Manipur NGO Partners' Consortium on HIV/AIDS has condemned the 'situational analysis' made by USER Manipur reportedly without properly studying the activities undertaken by NGOs established under NACO and MACS in Manipur towards controlling AIDS in the State.
Speaking to media persons at its Thangmeiband Yumnam Leikai office today, president of the Manipur NGO Partners' Consortium on HIV/AIDS Y Surchandra said that it took strong exception to the recent drive undertaken by USER Manipur at some Drop-in Centres, run by NGOs, working in the field of HIV/AIDS, in the name of situational analysis for it lacked authenticity and proper monitoring tool besides not giving prior information.
Situational analysis or research works conducted by any social organisation including the USER Manipur are welcome provided their works have definite objectives and follow correct process, Surchandra said while hinting at some hidden agenda behind the sudden drive undertaken by USER Manipur without permission of the relevant authority and without giving any prior information.
Because of all these reasons, partner NGOs of the consortium have decided not to extend cooperation to any such "unauthenticated drive" undertaken by USER Manipur in future, he informed.
Further, project staff involved in providing false information to USER Manipur without any knowledge of chief functionaries will be suspended, Surchandra said.
For any untoward affect resulting from media reports which seemed to be accusing NGOs without doing proper analysis of their operational mechanism about all published programmes, the USER Manipur should be held responsible, he asserted.
