Imphal, November 13 2013:
Thadou Students Association (TSA), Imphal has strongly condemned the 'self styled' general secretary of 'pseudo' ATSUM Marahang Ngiimai who has 'shamelessly' used ATSUM's name in a press release just to please the Ibobi Government's divide and rule policy among tribal community for his personal interest at the cost of tribal rights and land.
The TSA urges people to discard this 'Judas Iscariot' of tribal movement who speaks on behalf of the ministers and government agencies.
It will not be too far for him to be hanging and his ill begotten money will be called "Land of Blood", said TSA, Imphal unit president Thangminlien Haokip.
The students' body said it would like to clarify Marahang's ulterior motives and enlighten public that the truly mandated ATSUM is led by Muan Tombing as president and Vareiyo Shatshang as general secretary which has the fullest support of CDSU, TKS, ZSUM,IGNTU,ACTSOM and TSA.
"People like Marahang Ngiimai and Emboi Serto are power hungry tribals who have no right to be leaders of the parent student bodies.
They are just following what Minister Francis Ngajokpa has drafted for them and they are declared as anti-tribal", TSA alleged.
TSA, Imphal unit then said it fully supports ROTO and its agitations, which is for the rights of tribal people in the state.
