Imphal, February 28 2017:
Kuki Students' Organization, General Headquarters today expressed its disappointment over the 'contradictory' stances of the Central Government leadership and the Prime Minister Office which directly deals with NSCN-IM issue.
KSO said that the report of Indian Express on the ongoing Indo-Naga talks is a shocker for most people of the State.
"Leaders of NSCN-IM Thuingaleng Muivah and his deputies whom the Government of India previously had branded as "outlawed, banned and terrorist group" signed a pact with the same Government and is on the verge of finalization.
It is contemptible that the Central Government holds NSCN-IM in such high esteem by signing the framework agreement while distancing the other communities especially the Kukis.," the statement said.
It is not the Naga who has a 'unique history'.
Kuki's history is more unique.
The Government of India tends to forget the Kukis, in recorded history, were rulers of the erstwhile independent hill country.
The land stretching from the hill ranges in south of Naga Hills in the north and upper Chindwin and Chin Hills in the east, Chittagong Hill tracts in the south, and the plains of Sylhet in the west were historically known as Kuki country, KSO said.
