Imphal, July 04 2013:
Various hill district based students organisations including Churachandpur District Students' Union (CDSU), Zeliangrong Students' Union Manipur (ZSUM) and Tangkhul Katamnao Shaklong (TKS) have claimed that the proxy ATSUM under the leadership of Emboi Serto has no locus standi as ATSUM under the leadership of Muan Tombing and Vareiyo Shatsang is supported by organisations like CDSU, ZSUM, TKS, TSA-GHQ, MUTSU, IGNTUSU, ACTSOM, ATSF and tribal based civil organisations like ATDUM, AITSF etc.
The report which came out in the local dailies that new office bearers of ATSUM were sworn in is nothing but a callous adventurism on the part of the some frustrated so called leaders on a spree to create disunity among the tribal.
The very stage show has the sinister support of the past ATSUM leader's smack of their integrity and self-interest, said a joint release of CDSU, ZSUM and TKS.
Informing that ATSUM under the leadership of Muan Tombing and Vareiyo Shatsang has launched a series of agitations under the code name Reckoning of the others (ROTO), it also mentioned that an agreement has reached between ATSUM and the government of Manipur represented by Chief Minister and all his Cabinet Ministers during a meeting at the chamber of CM on 12th June, 2013 .
CDSU, ZSUM and TKS appealed all not to be mislead by such sycophancy and act of fraud and impersonation purportedly done by some vested individuals.
