Kanggui, July 25 2013: Kuki Inpi Sadar Hills and other Kuki civil bodies today solidly go up against the activities of Naga militant outfit, KTU, NSCN/GPRN within Sadar Hills and warned them to back off from the administrative areas of Kuki dominated Sadar Hills.

Talking to media persons here this afternoon, President of Kuki Inpi Sadar Hills Chungkam Haokip said that KTU, GPRN/NSCN - one of the Naga militant outfits of People's Republic of Nagalim, served a circulation for meeting in the letterhead of "Govt.of the People's Republic of Nagalim, Office of the KTU, Senapati Unit, KTU, NSCN/GPRN" signed by one Thangboi, Unit i/c, KTU, NSCN/GPRN to Kuki Chief of Changoubung, Hengbung, Taphou Kuki and Kailenjang on July 17 and July 25 respective without mentioning any agenda at Senapati bazar.

He further elaborated that as instructed by the Kuki Inpi Sadar Hills, chiefs of the four Kuki villages, which lie between Kangpokpi and Senapati, to desist from attending the meeting summoned by the KTU, NSCN/GPRN in their earlier circulation served to them without mentioning any agenda.

The circulation was served again to the four chiefs on July 25 at the same place and without mentioning any agenda to be discussed, said Chungkam Haokip, while adding that the four Kuki chiefs were again asked to refrain from attending the meeting since the Kuki Inpi is not in a position to accept any activity carried out by any element without the consent of the apex body.

President of Kuki Inpi Sadar Hills pointed out that the movement of the Naga militant outfit KTU NSCN/GPRN is a clear and visible evil ideology of communal conflict by the NSCN-IM which is totally against the Kuki community.

He made his stand clear that the Kuki Inpi Sadar Hills as well as the Kuki civil bodies will defy any vested individual or unwanted element who attempt to disturb and hassle the peace loving communities and its peaceful environment within Sadar Hills and will not entertain any activity carried out by KTU NSCN/GPRN within Sadar Hills.

"Unfortunately, notification has been served particularly to the Kuki passenger bus plying between Senapati and Imphal demanding to pay annual tax by 25 July, 2013 which clearly signified the communal mindset of the outfit", said Chungkam Haokip while adding that due to this fact, Sadar Hills Women Union and other civil bodies today called upon the Senapati to Imphal bound passenger bus owners and drivers at Gamgiphai and explained clearly the communal mindset of the Naga militant outfit KTU NSCN/GPRN towards their fellow Kuki bus owners and drivers and asked them to refrain from service until amicable solution is brought.

Same has been done by the Kanggui Youth Union at Kangpokpi and subsequently all passenger buses plying between Senapati and Imphal along NH-2 have ceased their service with immediate effect, said KISH President, and added that the service of Senapati to Imphal bound passenger bus along NH-2 will not resume until solution is brought.

Chungkam Haokip further mentioned that, earlier the two umbrella organizations of various Kuki militant outfits, UPF/KNO issued a press release stating that no organizations will be entertained to carry out any kinds of activities within the Kuki dominated areas without the knowledge of the two organizations and the civil bodies.

KTU, NSCN/GPRN has been seriously warned to back off by the Kuki civil bodies and asked them not to disturb further the four villages.

If the KTU, NSCN/GPRN militant outfit in any case continues to disturb and harass any of the four Kuki chiefs whom they frequently summoned for a meeting, in future, they will not tolerate and take every possible step for the safety of the peace loving communities and the prevailing peaceful environment, Chungkam Haokip made it clear.

The Kuki Inpi Sadar Hills has also appealed to the United Naga Council and other Naga civil bodies as well as like-minded persons to initiate and involve in the matter to bring out peaceful solution before things turn ugly in the interest of the tribal uprightness.

The Kuki Inpi Sadar Hills as well as UPF/KNO and other Kuki civil bodies also urged the NSCN-IM to refrain from their communal mindset which can resurface the 1990's ugly incident and appealed to solve the matter with peaceful approach.
