During the public meet, YK Dhiren said relation among the people residing in different parts of Manipur to defend the land was properly maintained during the time of kings.

However, indigenous thoughts, administration, economy and other social structures gradually waned ever since Manipur became part of India on October 15, 1949 .

The condition of Manipur seems to be degraded after becoming part of India for the past 75 years, he said and expressed sadness over India's indifferent attitude towards Manipur for a long time.
