Imphal, August 05, 2010:
In connection with this resignation as organisation secretary of UKLF, Lenin H Kuki alias Timothy Haokip alias Leno has stated it was a rational action taken by him.
Citing some of the reasons for his decision, Lenin said that it is known to all and sundry that UKLF was created, funded, trained and indoctrinated by NSCN (IM) and later on with the support and command of NSCN(IM), UKLF expanded its operation.
Though this unholy alliance has been strongly denied, the truth is that the birthright and ancestral land of the Kukis had been surrendered to NSCN (IM).
Alleging that C-in-C Lhunkhson alias MT Nelson Thadou alias SS Haokip is a semi-literate, ex-Rifleman of Manipur Rifles with poor educational background who is allergic to rationalism, political discourse, open debates and positive criticisms within the party or from any civil and chiefs' association, Lenin said that this inborn traits and characteristics on the party of C-in-C has left to undesirable consequences upon Kuki society.
He further said that since its formation, the combined forces of UKLF and NSCN (IM) have valiantly fought against the Kuki revolutionaries namely KNA and KLA cadres besides imposing ban on Kuki Inpi Manipur, issuing dos and don'ts, threats and shooting of KSO leaders, killing without fair trial .
Even now, KSO Pallen (Molnoi) area is banned and dissolved under the directive of UKLF.
Over and above all these muscle flexing and power show off upon the Kuki society, even at a critical junction when Muivah was attempting to sneak into Manipur, the president of Kuki Inpi was given warning through telephone by C-in-C of UKLF for holding Kuki National Leaders' Consultation at Imphal, he disclosed.
Quoting the saying, 'People perish when there is no vision, Lenin called that it is high time for all sensible Kukis to come together and stand resolutely for the cause of Kuki Nation as UKLF has no vision and concrete policy except the 'Nagalim' issue.
