Imphal, September 2 (NNN): The United Naga Council (UNC) sternly condemns the imposition of Section 144 Cr PC along National Highway-53 saying that it is the government of Manipur’s evil motive against peaceful bandh supporters. The UNC also said it condemns the ’intrusion of Thoubal police commandos' with evil intention and thrashing peaceful bandh supporters in Chandel district yesterday.
According to the UNC, about five bandh supporters were injured in yesterday's incident. Moresh Makunga who is the vice president of All Naga Students Association, Manipur (ANSAM) D.K. Mothang, secretary art and culture of Maring Students Union (MSU), D. Mothilphun who is the treasurer of MSU and M. Moshil, publicity secretary of MSU were thrashed at Thamnapokpi yesterday by the police, alleged the UNC. "We have taken this as a serious matter," it noted.
Meanwhile, the UNC said the Nagas have traditional boundaries since time immemorial and therefore any "further division/bifurcation/carving out of Nagas’ land" for creating or upgrading new districts on the pretext of administrative or otherwise without the consent and knowledge of Nagas will never be tolerated.
