IMPHAL, June 5 NNN : The Naga Students’ Federation (NSF) met Manipur Home minister Gaikhangam on June 4 and apprised him certain issues relating to the Nagas of Manipur. After meeting the Manipur Home minister, NSF president Tongpang Ozukum and its general secretary Easter Rhakho in a statement said the NSF said, “In connection with the proposal for construction of a five star hotel at Kabo Leikai in Imphal the government of Manipur carried out inhuman actions against the Nagas in the colony by demolishing their houses within 48 hours of the government order to vacate from their colony,” and strongly condemned the act of the Manipur government.
“This incident clearly demonstrates the sinister intention and continued attempt on the part of the communal government of Manipur to torture and discriminate the Nagas in Manipur,” said the NSF.
“The Federation, as a sign of showing its solidarity, has also visited the Silent village which was attacked by a large number of highly armed people from the neighbouring Saijang village on May 3. In this regard, NSF entourage team has pressed upon the government of Manipur to deploy adequate security for the safety of the villagers as well as to maintain status quo while respecting boundary demarcation between the villages,” the NSF added.
