Imphal, January 07 2015:
Noting that Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister Gaikhangam was repeatedly blaming a valley based UG group for the series of bomb blasts which killed many non-local civilians at Imphal, the proscribed UNLF remarked that Gaikhangam's statements were akin to the Government of India divide and rule policy under which different communities are pitched against each other.
But the fact remains that revolutionary groups of Manipur have been fighting for a united Manipur and they never differentiate between the hills and the valley, the outfit asserted in a press release issued by its department of publicity director-in-charge M Sakhen.
Calling upon the Deputy Chief Minister to first ascertain whether the bomb attacks were acts of State terrorism or whether they were carried out by pseudo revolutionaries or genuine revolutionaries, the UNLF maintained it smacked of immaturity when Gaikhangam jumped to the conclusion that the bomb attacks were carried out by a valley based UG group when the State Government was unable to find any clue about the identities of perpetrators who dared to plant bombs in the heart of Imphal city which is guarded round the clock by State forces and Indian military forces.
Questioning Gaikhangam's statement that bomb blasts were being triggered using poverty stricken women and youngsters, the outfit asked whether the Deputy Chief Minister was seeing those women and youngsters as worthless fellows who have no concern for the society or community or whether he was scheming to victimize those women and youngsters.
The puppet State Government is responsible for the ever growing chasm between the majority impoverished mass and a handful of super rich people.
Reacting to Gaikhangam's assertion that there was no case of abduction for ransom nor any case of bomb blast in Nagaland where insurgency took birth for the first time in the entire North East region, the outfit asked whether the Deputy Chief Minister was unaware of what was happening in Nagaland or whether he was feigning ignorance.
