Imphal, November 04 2022:
Several tribal bodies and individuals including Thadou Inpi-GHQ, Northern Maram People's Organisation (NMPO), Nungba Youth Organisation (NYO) and K Lhangnom village have denounced the indefinite economic blockade of NHs called by All Manipur Tribals Development Grievances Forum (AMTDGF).
In separate releases, Thadou Inpi-GHQ secretary general James Haokip, NMPO president T Hing and NYO president Thuiliang Kamei stated that they did not support the blockade as they were not consulted by AMTDGF and will act against anyone found endorsing the blockade within their respective jurisdiction.
Meanwhile, K Lhangnom village chief Thangkholet Chongloi, in a release, clarified that AMTDGF had put him in-charge of the imposition of economic blockade in Saitu block without his knowledge.
Hence, he asked the Forum to remove his name in public interest.
