Tengnoupal, March 03 2020:
The Kuki Students' Organisation (KSO) and Kuki Chiefs Association (KCA) Tengnoupal have appealed the State Government to hold Autonomous District Council (ADC) elections in the month of April/May, 2020 .
In a statement today, the organisations stated that delay of election will invite serious agitation from different corners.
The present tenure of ADC should be counted from the date of announcement, not from the date of declaration of the results.
The State Government should not hurt the sentiments of the hill people, they said.
The two CSOs also condemned the recommendation of the Hill Areas Committee to hold ADC elections in the month of November without concrete reasons by side lining the interest of general public.
They endorse the appeal made by All Tribal Students Union Manipur (ATSUM) and others CSOs of the hills in the matter, said the statement.
