Kangpokpi, February 28 2017:
Civil society organizations of Kangpokpi including KWU, TWA, KSO, TSA today reiterated its stance over deployment of commandos in the district and urged the State Government to abort any plans to deploy commandos in the district.
The CSOs in its joint meeting today at KSO Sadar Hills Administrative Office Kangpokpi unanimously resolved to oppose any plan of the State Government to deploy commandos in the district.
It recalled that a massive protest had already been witnessed opposing the opening of commando outpost and stationing of commando personnel at Gamgiphai village last year, which was subsequently settled after the State Government cancelled the outpost and withdrew the personnel.
It further stated that the State Government should be solely held accountable for any damages, arson, vandalism and deaths if their appeal is not heeded.
