Imphal, June 17 2013: Evicted residents of Kabo Leikai, also known as Naga River Colony in Imphal, are still adamant that they will not leave their locality vowing that they will fight back to claim their dwellings.

Driven out Kabo Leikai residents numbering around 300 constituting about 27 families are now taking shelter at a house in MBC Old Cemetery in Imphal after Manipur Government pulled down their houses last month.

Vagamla Phungsho, a 63-year-old resident of the small locality, said that about 100 young students are likely to spoil their academic careers following the eviction drive there.

Phungsho also expressed gratitude to the local MLA Y Erabat for extending assistance to the victims and providing shelters to them.

He said they are not disheartened by the Government move and that they will fight back to claim their dwellings in the locality.

As part of the eviction drive carried out by Manipur Government against encroachments in Imphal city last month, at least 27 houses were dismantled in Kabo Leikai near the Naga River on May 20 .

All the structures in the tribal majority locality were demolished by an order of the state Government after declaring them as 'encroachers' .
