- DIMAPUR — The NSCN (IM) has hit out at ‘Arambai Tenggol’ for not responding to the former’s demand for ‘unqualified apology’ over hoisting ‘Salai Taret’ flag during the Shirui Lily Festival in Ukhrul.
- In a press release on Monday, the NSCN (IM) stated that in acknowledgement of the trying time for all communities in Manipur, it had asked Arambai Tenggol to apologise to find a sensible resolution to the controversy sparked by their provocative comments on Shirui Lily ownership.
- “Let us go for maturity and handle the issue more objectively. Let us also be responsible enough not to create anything that dampened the social environment and be mindful of the potential dangers or conflicts for having taken the wrong steps at the right place.
- “The awful air of ethnic conflict that you are deeply involved has not totally disappeared yet. Significantly, there arises the responsibility not to provoke another ethnic tension by making reckless and impulsive statement,” the NSCN (IM) stated.
- It also maintained that statements or actions without any historical context only open the space for trouble makers using the social media platforms to fish in troubled waters.
- “Let us learn to stand strong with the spirit of peaceful co-existence, social responsibility and integrity by going for better conduct in future.
- “Ironically, you have not responded to the ‘unqualified apology’ demanded by the Wung-Tangkhul Region of GPRN. This is against the spirit of socio-political courtesy and the low ethical standard that can be stamped against your name,” the release added.
