During Tuesday's meeting, Kuki-Zo leaders asserted that cessation of hostility can only be achieved if their conditions are honoured.
The three pre-conditions for cessation of hostilities adopted at the meeting included no movement of Meetei individuals in Kuki-Zo-dominated areas and vice versa; initiation of meaningful and structured dialogue during the cessation of hostility; and to observe a sixmonth ceasefire on fulfilment of the aforementioned conditions.
The consultation meeting was attended by leaders from various Kuki-Zo civil society organisations, including Kuki-Zo Council, Sadar Hills Chiefs' Association, Kuki Inpi, student bodies, women s organisations, and tribal representatives.
Intellectuals, social activists, and other influential figures also contributed to the discussions.
All eyes are now on April 5 meeting, where the Ministry of Home Affairs is expected to facilitate negotiations that could shape the trajectory of inter-community relations in the region.
