- 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.
