Local residents of Langol area under the aegis of United Clubs of Langol organised a sit-in protest at Langol on Wednesday against the alleged attempt to annex Langol which is under Uripok Assembly constituency into Sadar Hills.
Interacting with the media at the protest site, United Clubs of Langol convenor Samom Dhruba strongly condemned the claim of Langol being under the jurisdiction of Sadar Hills made by Sadar Hills District Demand Committee and demanded the government to clarify on the matter.
He also demanded the government to constitute boundary commission and demarcate clear cut district boundaries to avoid future disputes.
Langol is a historically important place for Meetei community and there are several important religious sites for the community along this hill range.
They cannot accept the nefarious plot to annex the hill range into Sadar Hills, he said ana warned of launching different forms of agitation if the government remains silent on the matter.
