Bishnupur, December 20 2015:
A sit-in protest was staged by the members of Ibudhou Thangjing Phamnaiba Cheirap Loishang, Thangjing Seva Mandal, Joint Committee Tiddim, KEMAL, Moirang and titular king of Moirang condemning naming of Thangjing range as Thangting at Ibudhou Thangjing Laikonung today, reports our correspondent.
Historical Development Association, Moirang secretary Mohonchandra Konjengbam said that naming Thangting is a step to erase the history and identity of Thangjing.
People of Moirang are not against the creating of new Sub-Division.
While undertaking any developmental step, identity of the place should be acknowledged and maintained in order to conserve and pass on the age-old history to younger generations.
