Imphal, May 04 2025:
Village Volunteers Force (WF), Sekmai observed 'May 3 Ningshing Thouram' at Awang Sekmai Koujengleima Lampak on Saturday.
A release issued by VVF informed that representatives of several women's organisations, Meira Paibi groups and clubs attended the observance and paid floral tributes to those killed in the violence.
Speaking at the programme, WF general secretary Moirangthem Gyanal strongly condemned failure by the government authorities to address the unrest situation, stating that Meeteis are unable to travel along the National Highway and cross Sekmai.
He added that they were even prevented by Kukis from trekking to Koubru hills for conduct of rituals atop the hill range, a tradition observed every year.
He urged the Governor to look into the matter at the earliest.
