Imphal, September 12 2023:
Kuki People's Alliance (KPA) has appealed to the Naga community of Manipur for unity of all tribal communities towards the call for a 'Separate Administration' .
In a release, KPA publicity and information secretary Sominthang Doungel conveyed that the KPA accepts and supports the decision of the Kuki chiefs and civil societies of Kangpokpi district taken on September 5 to refrain from display of black flags and from wearing black attire on the solemn occa-sion of the 'Sahnit Ni', the Kuki Black Day, falling on Wednesday and to instead observe the coming day as a 'Prayer Day for Peace' .
"It is a conciliatory gesture to bury the hatchet and to bury the past.
It is a positive move for future peace and development.
It is a reach-out to the Naga community, who have been ever helpful both in kind and social support during the on-going Meetei assault on the Kuki, with a clear message that we can build our future together in mutual respect, mutual trust and cooperation," it said.
