Imphal, August 21 2017:
Instead of nursing inferiority complex, ethnic Meiteis residing in Tripura should unite for a political aspiration, UCM president Johnson Elangbam said .
Johnson was speaking during the 'Tripura-Manipur Socio Cultural Meet' held yesterday at Saheed Bhagat Singh Youth Hostel auditorium located at Khejur Begun, Tripura .
Addressing the programme jointly organised by United Committee Manipur and Progressive Committee, Johnson said Meiteis of Tripura apparently harbour an inferior complex .

In Manipur, there are tribes with small population who preserve their identity.
Likewise, Meiteis in Tripura should also have their own political aspiration .
Speaking at the occasion, Manipur's Health Minister Langpoklakpam Jayentakumar said instead of making inferiority complex an excuse to remain in isolation, they should exhibit the spirit of dedication to achieve something .
There is a need to forge unity among the less populated community, Jayentakumar said while stressing the need to create a political platform .
The Health Minister further assured the construction of a statue of the late Major Chongthamiya in Tripura .
Manipuri diasporas of Tripura who attended the event expressed serious apprehension about the dwindling values of Manipuri customs and culture, religion and socio-economy.
They also conveyed their wish that the Govt of Manipur extend possible assistance to preserve the Manipuri customs, cultures and mores .
