Imphal, May 20 2023:
Expressing concern over fre-quent ethnic clashes in the North East particularly the present one in Mani-pur, the United Mongoloid (UM) said such clashes will continue to happen in the region in future too.
According to a statement of UM, external interference and difference of blood origin among indigenous peoples of the North East are main rea-sons for ethnic clashes in the region.
Different communities may be living in the region but indigeneous Mongoloid people are original inhabitants of the region, whose population is assumed to be around 1.5 crore only out of the total 4 crore population of the region.
The UM also said that Mongoloid peo-ple of the region must clearly indentify who the real indigenous people of the region are and who are outsiders and accordingly take steps to bring peace and unity among Mongoloid people of the region.
