Imphal, July 12 2015 :
The All Manipur Tammi-Chingmi Apunba Lup has said that influx of non-locals was witnessed in Manipur after the State was forcefully merged to India.
In a statement, the association said that as the non-locals are handling the business and market of the State, indigenous people are dependent on them regarding the matter.
In addition to this, non-locals own huge areas of land in the State as there is no restriction in the purchase of land, it said.
Taking a dig at the elected MLAs, the lup questioned why they made tall promises at the time of election if they are not willing to work for the people.
The lup also said that they would extend support to the ongoing agitation till the demand is fulfilled.
