Imphal, March 12 2023:
Zeliangrong Union, Assam Manipur and Nagaland has appealed to the state government to peacefully resolve the issue of Maha Kabui Namching village before it gets out of control.
Addressing a press meet held at Manipur Press Club here on Sunday, Union president Agang Rongmei said that Maha Kabui Namching is an old village with its own boundary and has been paying hill house tax.
However, Ibudhou Korouhanba Thougal Lup, Moidangpok Lai Committee has made a false claim, which has disturbed the peaceful atmosphere in the village.
The village had generously donated a piece of land after the founders of the Lai Committee made a request.
Unfortunately, the present Lai Committee has made a claim over the village, which is wrong and could lead to communal disharmony.
As such, he appealed to the Chief Minister to hold a joint meeting with the Committee and the leaders of the village to prevent the issue from getting out of control and instead, solve it peacefully, while ensuring the longevity of the close bond between the Zeliangrong and the Meetei communities.
The press meet was also attended by the village chief and leaders of various organisations including Kabui Mothers' Association.
