Unity Move Among Nagas:

IM flays Tangkhul bashing:

Dimapur, Dec 15: The NSCN-IM has expressed resentment “for using the name of Tangkhuls in a bad taste”.

Harping deeper on the matter, the outfit said on Saturday that in the name of Naga unification, the “NSCN/GPRN shall always stand tall” with all honesty and commitment.
It stated that the NSCN-IM is all the more exhilarated when all the Naga tribes stand for Naga unification and reconciliation.

“This is encouraging and must be translated into something concrete. It is however unfortunate that in the name of Naga unification the name of Tangkhul is used in a very bad taste”, rued the NSCN-IM.

The outfit also added that there is not an iota of truth in accusing the ‘Tangkhuls’ as standing on the opposite side of Naga unification.

“This is absolutely misleading and does not augur well for the healthy development of Naga unification,” said the NSCN-IM while adding, “and the Nagas in general should not be taken back by such unfounded and misdirected concept on the Tangkhuls”.

The outfit also called upon that in the campaign for Naga unification “let us learn to be humanistic and not communally bombastic”.

The NSCN-IM then asked, “Why spread tribalism venom while the unification process is being studied?” The outfit termed it as uncalled for and “smacks of unwarranted communal campaigns that only tarnish the unification process”.

The NSCN-IM statement then opined that maturity of approach and honesty of commitment should guide the “Naga Nation in search of lasting unity”.

“Because of the complexities involved it demands such level of moral attachment and transparency. NSCN is committed by the people’s aspiration that Nagas are one and let none divide us,” prayed the NSCN-IM statement.

Manipur Hockey Association (MHA), along with Manipur Women’s Hockey Association (MWHA) had constituted an interim unified body — Hockey Manipur — in a joint meeting on June 28 with MWHA president N Momon Devi as president and Th Manihar Singh as secretary general.

Murder in Mumbai!

Manipuri girl found dead Imphal/Mumbai, July 15 : A 27-year-old Manipuri girl working as a customer relationship manager in a Mumbai five star hotel was found dead in her hostel at Marol in Andheri shortly after midnight on Friday. Ch. Alena’s body was found hanging by a dupatta from the balcony of the hostel she shared with three other girls, authorities at Hotel Leela Kempinski said. But injury marks in her private parts have raised suspicions that she may have been sexually assaulted before being strangulated. Though family members performed the last rites at Kongpal Kshetri Leikai of Imphal East this afternoon, they demanded a thorough probe by the Mumbai police into the circumstances leading to her death. Chabungbam Ashok Kumar Singh, who brought his sister’s body home, said the family was “informed over phone on Saturday by hostel authorities that she was seriously ill, so come fast”.
