Imphal, November 05 2023:
North East Students' Organisation (NESO) announced staging of demonstration in all capitals of North East states on November 9 in protest against alleged failure of the Union government to resolve the over six months long ethnic conflict between the Meiteis and Kukis in Manipur.
In a release, NESO chairman Samuel B Jyrwa and secretary general Mutsikhoyo Yhobu expressed grave concern over the situation in Manipur where peace has remained elusive for more than six months now.
This can be attributed to the abject failure of Union government to address the crisis in an efficient manner thus putting the lives and properties of people at stake especially the career of students, the release said.
NESO mentioned that the protest has been called to express strong resentment against the failure of central government to resolve the violence and exert pressure on the centre find out ways and means for resolving the crisis at the earliest taking into consideration of the views and opinions of the stakeholders concerned.
