Imphal, December 21 2011:
The Zeliangrong Union, (Assam, Manipur, Nagaland) has appealed to the group concerned to call off the bandh in the interest of all.
In statement issued to the press today, ZU said that the people are yet to fully recover from the trauma of the more than 3 months economic blockade and added that imposing a bandh at this juncture would inconvenience the people, especially the Christian community no end during the Christmas season.
With the bandh on, many people who were returning home for the Christmas celebration have been stranded at Imphal and forced to stay in hotels and at the places of their friends and relatives, jeopardising their participation in the celebration.
