Imphal, December 24 2023:
The proscribed RPF has extended warm greetings to all the people of Manipur on the auspicious occasion of Christmas.
In a statement issued by its Assistant Secretary, Publicity Bangkim, the outfit wished that Christmas may bring peace, stability and harmony among all the people of Manipur.
As desired by the heavenly Father, Lord Jesus Christ came to earth and led mankind to the path of truth, away from evil and darkness, it said.
The main teaching and message of Jesus Christ is universal love and peace, said the outfit.
Guided and driven by communal thoughts and racial or ethnic superiority, communities have been suppressing other communities, said RPF's Minority Affairs Deputy Secretary Y Shyam.
In Manipur, thousands of people have been displaced within their own State.
As a result of widespread violent conflict, cries and wailing of hundreds of people who have lost their near and dear ones have filled the air, Shyam remarked.
It's time for all the communities to reconcile, come together once again and live peacefully, Shyam said.
