Imphal, June 19:
Manipuri brethren who are living in different parts of the world have now joined in protesting against the extension of Indo-Naga cease fire to Manipur by opening a website to launch an international signature campaign.
The website found at www.geocities.com/savemanipur was initiated by a member of e-group, Manipur, an international community of Manipuris through internet.
The site can be logged on by any person who is against the ceasefire extension and is accompanied by a memorandum to the Prime Minister of India.
The same memorandum would be directed to the Prime Minister�s office through e-mail.
The drafted memorandum says, �Manipuris love peace and support your (PM) initiatives with NSCN (IM), but those initiatives cannot be at our expenses�.
�The people of Manipur today stand united against Greater Nagaland concept that may compromise the territorial integrity of Manipur�, it said.
The memo said that India has fought four war over Kashmir with Pakistan adding Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the then Prime Minister in 1952 gave away Manipur�s Kabow valley to the Burmese to buy peace.
The old mistrust has been sparked off by the recent extension of Indo-Naga ceasefire.
The resentment and mistrust will �only be undone by acts of good faith by strong leaders like you� , the memorandum said.
The memorandum further appealed to the Prime Minister to lead and show consideration of feelings and sentiments and listen to the cries of all Manipuri�s.
