In a press release, PLMPAM said, the women organisation has taken serious note of the outfit's statement regarding Chandel incident.
Condemning the statement the women's organisation said, nothing is communal in the ongoing agitation, and it is just for bringing justice to the culprit.
It added, people of Manipur could have taken NSCN (IM) as a truehearted organisation had the outfit punished the culprit and apologised the victim and people of Manipur.
Saying that the statement of NSCN (IM) might further aggravate the public anguish, the women's body suggested the outfit not to make such comments in future which may provoke communal tension.
Maintaining that hill and valley people are brethrens, the organisation pointed out that NSCN (IM) has also their own responsibility to build up hill-valley integrity.
