Imphal, October 28 2021:
Kangleipak Kanba Lup (KKL), Manipur has called for preservation of the sanctity of Ema Keithel in the face of certain demands which the organisation has adjudged to be unsavoury.
In a statement issued today, KKL has stated that if all different ethnic groups in the State demand for separate markets then it will work against the integration of the different communities living in Manipur.
Further, it raised the question of whether the Government would be capable of meeting such a demand as there are more than 40+ ethnic groups currently residing in the State.
The statement also added that KKL stands against the notion of renaming an already existing Keithel and advised the current Government and future Government that might take the helm of administration of the State to throw out any demands of this nature.
