Imphal, April 30 2023:
Thingkangphai Village Authority has condemned the reckless action of some miscreants that disturb social harmony in the village and called it regrettable.
In a release, Thingkangphai VA chairman Ngammuonthang Haokip regretted an incident of de-hoisting the 'Salai Taret' flag at the residence of one Oken by miscreants around 5 pm Saturday.
Such unruly behaviour is uncalled for.
Respecting the traditional practices or one's religious identity is sacred as people of different communities have been harmoniously living with us for the past many years, it stressed.
The village authority continued that demeaning the values of identity of other faith, etc., is a misnomer and unacceptable in modern civilised society.
The culprits involved should apologise and compensate the angst of the community for ensuring peaceful co-existence of all communities, it further maintained.
