In response to the report published in some sections of media on July 2 last regarding its demand for extension of 6th Schedule and submission of a memorandum to the Prime Minister of India in this regard, Kuki Peoples' Forum (KPF) Chandel District has clarified that it has not issued any such public statement to the media.
A press release issued today by Mangboi, Information Secretary of Kuki People's Forum, Chandel expressed surprise over the content of the statement that has no particular bearing on the exact identity of the organization or the leaders of the organization who were responsible for publishing the news statement.
Saying the report led to confusion among the District masses, KPF demanded the organization responsible for publishing the news statement to come out in the open and reveal their true identity so as to avoid misunderstanding and confusion in the District.
Further, the KPF Chandel emphasized that the Media should be very conscious and be mature enough in dealing with news statements published by organizations whose identities are vague.
Such type of confusing statements can lead to disruption of public harmony and peace in the District, it said.
