  • The KU asserted the independent and time-honoured nature of the Angh institution (kingship), highlighting its role as a traditional authority exercising sovereign powers without affiliation to any union or organisation.

  • The inclusion of 'Konyak Angh Union Nagaland' has caused confusion and concern among the public and various organisations,” it stated.

  • To address these concerns, the union convened a coordination meeting with all the Anghs (hereditary chiefs) of various villages on May 7 at the KU conference hall in Mon. Following thorough deliberation, it was unanimously confirmed that no organisation exists under the title 'Konyak Angh Union Nagaland.'

  • “Therefore, the Konyak Union urges the concerned organisation to rectify this misrepresentation to prevent any further misunderstanding or confusion,” it stated.
