Imphal, June 09 2011:
The Rongmei Lu Phuam (RLP), Assam, Manipur, Nagaland has fervently appealed to all concerned to exercise restraint in order to prevent all forms of violence that may provoke widespread breach of peace in Zeliangrong region.
Reminding that talks and negotiations can be the best option to bring peace and stability, an RLP statement described as unfortunate the June 7 incident of gunning down an NSCN (IM) cadre at Khoupum Valley under Nungba sub-division of Tamenglong district by the armed wing of ZUF 'for reasons best known to the parties concerned' .
the injured cadre was reportedly shot at a public place creating panic and fear psychosis in the area, the statement informed and reiterated its appeal to all concerned including the NSCN (IM), NSCN (K), NNC, individuals and the Indian security forces to apply wisdom for maintaining peace and tranquillity.
The RLP, like any other women organisation shall continue to strive for peace, it added.
