Muivah's 'esprit_de_corps' - a fool's play!
Sanatombi Angomcha *
'There is need to maintain a congenial atmosphere for the political negotiations to continue.'- a quote from Th. Muivah- the pseudo leader (please note the mention of pseudo).
History is the sole witness to the rise of innumerable revolutionary leaders in Manipur as well as its adjoining states. Let us assume that 'Muivah' is one such leader and consider that his patriotic feeling for the welfare of the Naga tribe is again substantial. But why does he adopt the wrong strategy and technique to promote his tribe?
Muivah's demand for greater Nagaland first of all, doesn't make an iota of sense. To cite a relevant point, Indian constitution hasn't framed any such law which explains that 'Nagaland can expand its territory in Manipur or vice versa'. If so, why does Muivah make such intangible, illogical and barbaric demands of greater Nagaland or Nagalim?
I hope Mr. Muivah is literate enough and that he is aware of what is currently happening around in the rest of the country and in the world. Excusez Moi! But we are living in a technological world today and how can he hatch upon strategies of harvesting and deep-rooting the seeds of "Barbarism"? How dare he?
Coming back to the issue of patriotism, Muivah while fighting for the cause of the Naga tribe had abandoned Manipur long time back. His motives were no doubt clear that he abandoned Manipur with this sole mission to sow seeds of animosity between Manipur and Nagaland. And like a bolt from the blue, one day Mr. Muivah suddenly becomes "Nostalgic" and yes "Homesick" and wants to visit his home town and lo and behold! He in fact made a plan to visit his home town.
Since, our Muivah is a great personality in the entire North east -(typed with a subtle note of mockery actually), he publicizes everyone about his home visit simultaneously expecting to greet him with great pomp and show during his home visit.
Hello! Such awful dreams wake up Mr.
We had enough in the past; we sacrificed enough lives and suffered shoddily too. The sole reason behind all these being you and your barbaric ways of revolutionizing your tribe Monsieur Muivah! And this time, we make sure, we don't let you unleash your barbaric strategies in a civilization conscious Manipur.
So, kindly apply your 'espirit de corps' somewhere else. And yes! Please grow up. Time has changed, life is calling but where are you?? Abandon barbarism and step ahead towards a new sun of civilization. No wonder, it's a fool's play framing your own self acclaimed paradise!
Adieu!
