Imphal, August 19 2016 :
Sanamahi
Inat Laining Loina Lup joined
in the relay hunger strike protest
of the Schedule Tribe Demand
Committee at Wal Club ground,
Wangkhei Angom Leikai,
today.
Sanamahi Inat Laining
Loina Lup president
Ningthoujam Ningthemjao
said the lup wholly supports
STDC's demand for the in-
clusion of Meetei/Meitei in
the Schedule Tribe list.
Even though the hill peo-
ple and the plain people are
said to be sharing a fraternal
bond, there is a division be-
tween the communities.
Meetei/Meitei should be en-
listed in the ST category and
they should not be segregated
by clubbing them in general
category.
