Imphal, October 10 2021: The number of indigenous people, who should be spearheading and making bigger sacrifices in every major issue, is drastically declining.

No step is taken to curb the fall in population, which is the fountain head of all strength.

This has made the community a sapped community today.

No inquiry is made as to how the people of this land are settling and how much change has been brought in.

After occupation by Hindustan, the family planning policy that was taken up has become the grave for the society.

Creating factional history and division of ethnic groups that disables building united strength has become a trend among the Kanglei races today.

It has been long since community-based histories have been developed midway and indulging in factional and communal politics.

This makes way for a kind of political system that cannot integrate the land.

Such politics, aimless election and accompanying issue of drug gangs could not rear their ugly heads during the period between 1980 and 2000 when the sounds of gunfire of the war for liberation were heard quite often, Aheiba Angom said.

As there is no guarantee that the ongoing struggle for liberation is going to end today or tomorrow, it has become essential to take up various activities to save the society, which is almost on the brink of hopelessness, to bring about changes while engaging in the struggle for liberation side by side.

Among such activities, promoting a number of people who know very well #bout Kangleipak is one.

It is essential to bring out many people who know thoroughly about the history, geography, social and sentiments and strength of the general people and also about the different communities.

This is not an easy task.

This is a task of creating a generation of people with great potential.

Most of the youth of the state today do not know Kangleipak.

This is one reason why the movement for liberation cannot be strong.

Thus, it's time special efforts are made to bring out social scientists just as much attention is being paid to science, sports and culture.

This is not something Hindustanis would do for us, only the 'Kangleichas' should do it for ourselves.

Search has been going on for answer to the question as to whether there is a map to fully use the right to self-determination of Kangleipak as handed down through the history with the help of the international laws.

A universal standard for all mankind in the world has been introduced in the 20th century.

This right that used to be exercised only in the small countries in Europe before the 20th century got expanded amidst the World War I and II.

As an outcome of the World War II, the right to self-determination demanded by India since 1918 was given assent to arid granted by the British after 29 years.

It was not discussed on the platform of the UN.

With a lot of efforts by Soviet Union and China, it was resolved in 1960 that the UN and its member nations would respect the right to self-determination.

Even India ratified the resolution.

However, since the Western countries were primarily concerned with the salt water decolonization, they did not pay attention to the countries that did not come under the colonization of the West.

The West still accepts the UN resolution, Aheiba Angom pointed out.

PREPAK expresses heartfelt sorrow over the death of Kangleichas especially those who worked in the forefront as COVID warriors, particularly doctors, nurses, health workers and front-liners due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In fact, deaths due to COVID-19 resulted from lack of health care facilities and failure to take timely steps to save the people from the pandemic.

The government should be held responsible for all these, Aheiba Angom added.
