United Naga Council (UNC) decries AMUCO, UCM stand on 'territorial integrity'
Nagaland Post | Dimapur, Apr 13 (NPN)
UNC pointed out such threats did not change the fact that Nagas and tribals were not Meiteis and that there was already an “irreparable” social divide in the present state of Manipur.
Stressing that the histories of the Nagas and Meitei were “different”, UNC asserted that the hills were “never a part of the Meitei kingdom or its magnificent history”. The council stated that Nagas and tribals alone “must decide their destinies”.
Emphasizing that the “Indo-Naga” talks was in place due to the “legitimacy” of the Naga movement, UNC said that “parochialism and chauvinism” of the dominant community as reflected in the recent statements emanating from the valley has given rise to the demand for alternative arrangements outside the “communal” government of Manipur by different tribal communities even as far back as 1948.
