Imphal, July 26 2023:
People of Sagolband and Tera on Wednesday set fire to the effigy of Mizoram Chief Minister Zoramthanga for his unsavoury remarks against Manipur Chief Minister N Biren during a sol-V idarity rally taken out in Mizoram on Tuesday.
Locals and Meira Paibis of Sagolband and Tera set fire to the effigy at Tera Bazar traffic island and Sagolband Moirang Leirak Machin respectively, and also shouted various slogans.
Speaking on the sidelines, one of the protesting women questioned why the Mizoram CM was interfering in another state's affairs and whether he was funding the Kuki militants, considering his ways of inciting hatred and violence in Manipur.
She then said that the womenfolk of the state, particularly the Meitei women have always been the ones to save the state.
At present, preparations are complete for launch of the third Nupi Lal, if needed, she informed, while remarking that people of Mizoram will regret for backing elements trying to balkanise Manipur.
