Imphal, July 19 2023:
A conglomerate of local organisations and meira paibi organisations along Tinsid Road christened 'Selloi Nongpok Lamjing Lup' has been constituted as announced by self-styled Godman 'Panthou' today.
The blessing ceremony of the newly formed organization was held at Nongpok Chingu Thong, Meetei Laikol in Thalo Sipi Lok Selloi Langmai Ching, Imphal East.
Waikhom Anand, convenor, Selloi Nongpok Lamjing Lup who was also present at the event stated that the ten Kuki-Chin MLAs have put forth their demands in bold letters.
But the remaining MLAs are sitting quiet with locks on their mouths.

It is unfortunate that the State Government has not taken any definitive step for the people of Manipur, he added.
Stating that the series of violence by Kuki militants may be termed as "demographic terrorism", he reasoned that the population of Meiteis have reduced considerably.
Causing a demographic imbalance and thus carrying out "demographic terrorism" may be perceived as a ploy to wipe out the Meitei community, he claimed.
He maintained that since the "Seven Years Devastation" this conflict is the first war waged to annihilate the Meiteis.
Notably, Waikhom Anand opined that no one in the world can save the Meitei community except for people in the community itself.
They must work to save the community from the smallest social level of 'leikais', he said.
Once we save our localities, we can save the entire community and State, he asserted.
Further, he informed that Selloi Nongpok Lamjing Lup was formed with the goal of uniting everyone in the face of the ongoing conflict.
Nongpok Pana Apunba Lup (NONGPAL) convenor Laishram Vivekananda was also present at the ceremony.
