THE ‘militarisation of Ulhrul town by deployment of huge Manipur police commandos and IRB and promulgation of Section 144 CrPC has disturbed the peace and tranquility of the town’, the Naga Hoho said in a release. The Hoho said it is deeply concerned over this standoff. “The Naga Hoho has been tirelessly working with utmost sincerity to bring peace and tranquility for the Naga people and we are against any form of violence and killing in our society,” the release said. The apex Naga body of elders has said the ‘warlike situation’ should be removed and that disturbing peace will not be in the interest of stakeholders.
