KNO rubbishes


IMPHAL, Sep 7: The KNO has rubbished the irrational press statement of MAFYF which appeared in some local dailies on September 2 regarding the hardships that befell upon the villagers of Khamenlok Kuki and Nongshum in the aftermath of the combing operation launched by security forces. A press release issued by the KNO’s information and publicity secretary Lenin H Kuki asserted that MAFYF neither has the right nor mandate to condemn, warn or speak against the hill people, particularly against the KNO.

Saying that the KNO operates not in Naga, Meitei or any one’s lands but in its own ancestral lands, it maintained that MAFYF has no legitimate right to threaten or shoo away the KNO through their sinister propaganda.

The outfit also appealed to all, particularly Khamen-lok Kuki and Nongshum villagers to be vigilant and don’t let themselves brush off by the divisive forces whose sole purpose lies in creating communal discord and social conflict.
