Imphal, October 18 2012:
The United Naga Council (UNC) has advised all tribe councils and village councils that village authorities in the respective villages should be duly constituted as per traditional practice.
The UNC, through a press release, also urged that utmost cordiality may be maintained in the villages while carrying out the exercise as and when it is due.
It further reiterated that "it is impossible to protect our right to life, land, time-honoured institutions, customary practice and values and live with dignity and honour as a people under the administration of the Government of Manipur.
"It is therefore imperative that extraneous factors are not allowed to affect our declared position at this critical juncture", it added.
