H Mangchin further said JAC has reaffirmed the immediate need for "political autonomy" for the tribal communities of Manipur as desired by the public.
He also sought the help of United Peoples' Front (UPF); Kuki National Organisation (KNO) and other stakeholders to work out an amicable political solution which would be wholeheartedly supported by all sections of the tribal society.
Mangchin informed that eight "innocent victims" have been declared as "Tribal Martyrs" and hence no compensations, ex-gratia or concomitant assistance from the Government of Manipur will be accepted.
He said each member of the tribal communities will make monetary contributions towards the supreme sacrifice made by the eight "martyrs." JAC also urged each and every tribal in the State to participate in the peoples' movement for "collective survival" .
Mangchin also appealed the people not to spread the rumors which would create communal tension in the State.
