Imphal, November 26 2013: The Kuki Inpi, Saikul Gamkai (KISG) and Saikul Area Naga Peoples Organisation (SANPO) have given an ultimatum to the State Government of Manipur to implement its demand by November 30 or else its suspended agitation will be resumed.

In this regard, KISG and SANPO have reminded its earlier memorandum submitted to the chief minister of Manipur.

In a reminder submitted to the chief minister today, the KISG and SANPO have strongly expressed their resentments on the alleged negligence of the state government of Manipur towards their demands made through a memorandum submitted on September 25 for the immediate cancellation of Home department's notofication of June 14, 2011, and to withdraw all the villages of Saikul sub-division included in the police stations of Imphal East district regarding the Police district boundaries and police stations under the jurisdiction of Saikul sub-division, Senapati district.

They also demanded for the inclusion of Maphou Dam police station and Purum Likli police station (under construction) under the administrative jurisdiction of Senapati district police.

They further demanded for the opening of police stations and outposts in all strategic areas, if needed under Senapati police station.

Finally, they also asked not to disturb the existing original district and subdivisional boundaries in the name of security and law and order.

KISG and SANPO said their demands should be met by November 30 or else they will consult with the other civil bodies of the area and resume the suspended agitation.

They then alleged that it is the covert policy of the state government of Manipur to allow the valley district administrations to 'intrude or encroach' in the hill districts.

KISG and SANPO then asked whether the state government of Manipur exists exclusively for the welfare of the valley districts.

They then asked that parallel policies and programmes should be adopted for both the valley and the hill districts if the state government genuinely has concern for the security of the people.

It can be noted here that KISG and SANPO had imposed a 48-hour Senapati district on October 15 and 16 on the issue.
