Tamenglong, February 25 2018:
Tousem Area Students' Organisation (TASO) in its press release stated that Tousem, which is one of the Sub Divisions of the State remains in a deplorable condition owing to its interior location and perpetual negligence by the authorities concerned.
It stated that TASO will not tolerate any provision of the Government to disintegrate the Sub Division while adding that the greatest apprehension of the people is that some of the villages of the Sub Division adjacent to the newly created Noney and Jiribam district will be merged with the two districts.
The people of the Sub Division, comprising of eight tribal communities, have existed and dwelt together in peace and harmony and TASO will oppose any plan to split the Sub Division, it added.
"We don't stand in the way of anyone to have new district but it should not touch the geographical boundaries of Tousem", it stated.
