Imphal, November 28 2015 :
The Ethno Heritage Council (HERICOUN) said that all concerned should work together to bring a solution to the much publicised issue of changing of the Aimols' identity.
In a statement, HERICOUN said all concerned should extend support towards the realisation of the wish and aspiration of the majority population of Aimols who want to preserve and maintain their ethnic tribal identity.
It said every tribe or community wants to maintain and preserve their respective identities.
This is an inherent rights of all communities.
However, smaller communities are sometimes assimilated by bigger and major communities.
Conflicts are bound to happen when bigger communities pose a threat to the freedom of identity preservation of the minority communities.
As such, major communities should allow the minority communities to preserve and protect their identity without causing any hindrance, HERICOUN said.
