Imphal, June 18 2023:
Highlighting the need to identify the tribes demanding homeland as there are several tribes under 'Kukr , Kangleipak Kanba Lup (KKL) has appealed to all to join hands and fight against those scheming to balkanize Ma-nipur.
In a release, KKL secretary general U Ngamkheingakpa said that leaders of the tribes who do not support the homeland de-mand but were included under 'Kuki' should clarify so as to avoid facing unwanted consequences when people of Manipur punish those who do not have any right to demand separate homeland and administration.
While wondering whether the remaining communities should join hands and fight when a par-ticular community demands a sep-arate homeland in within the state where 35 communities are settling, he also questioned whether it is the responsibility of the Meetei community only to safeguard the unity and integrity of Manipur.
