Imphal, June 21 2024:
Nongshum villagers have categorically stated that they would not allow relocation of the Pambei-led UNLF MPA's Marjing Battalion from Nongshum village in Imphal East district.
Speaking to media persons on Friday, one Konjengbam Abung cautioned that the villagers would oppose any move to shift the Marjing battalion from Nongshum as well as the government decision to confine the MPA cadres only at Ingourok and Kakching Khunou.
Pointing out that attacks on the people living in periphery areas and foothills by Kuki militants since the conflict broke out on May 3, 2023 are continuing, he urged not to conduct operation in foothill areas as suppressing one side while letting the other scot-free smacks of discrimination and partiality.
