Kangpokpi, August 12 2017:
The United Welfare Committee, Kangpokpi district snubbed the decision of the Mayangkhang General which oppose the proposed celebration of Patriots Day at General Thangal Ecological Park in Kangpokpi district .
The UWC said that the decision of the Mayangkhang General (MG) is intriguing and lacks clarity and questioned the reason for objecting the celebration of Patriots Day at General Thangal Ecological Park in Kangpokpi district .
It advised the MG to be aware of the present landscape and added that from December 8, Mayangkhang village legitimately fell under Kangpokpi district .
The committee urged the Mayangkhang General to rectify its press release and the reference of General Thangal Ecological Park as Kangpokpi district and not Senapati district .
UWC further said, "In order to enlighten the Mayangkhang General, we may recall the Government of Manipur order No 16/20/2016-R dated 8/12/2017 and the subsequent modification which clearly stated that the creation of Kangpokpi district from the nine Sub Divisions of former Sadar Hills wherein Mayangkhang falls justifiably under Kangpokpi Sub-division .
It would be not only be unwise but rather foolish on the part of Mayangkhang General if they oppose the said official celebration based on false and childish assumption that the venue is still under Senapati district and that Kangpokpi district administration has no business in it, the committee asserted .
The United Welfare Committee also appeal the District Administration Kangpokpi to go ahead with the official plans and programs in tune with past tradition, as scheduled and not to be cowed down by some misinformed, politically motivated organization with childish bickering.
