Imphal, Sep 22 : Kuki National Liberation Front (KNLF) surrendered to the state government and accordingly the home coning ceremony was held on the 9th September 2013 at 1st Bn. Manipur rifles, Imphal. Although the previous press statements of KNLF are contrary to their recent surrender ceremony, UKLF expressed its happiness for their joining the peace process. Indeed, the KNLF had time and again openly blamed SoO groups of Kuki UGs for joining the peace process and even dubbed them as traitors and betrayers but their action as of now is not in line with their previous statement. Anyway, accepting peace process is always good for all and UKLF appreciated them.
JM.Thadou, Info& Publicity Secy. UKLF said their present action of threatening social leaders of Chandel district like Kuki Pepoles Forum (KPF), Kuki Students Organization (KSO), Kuki Chief Association (KCA), Kuki Women Human Rights (KWHR) and Kuki Inpi Manipur(KIM) is much against to their acceptance of peace term.
It asked KNLF leadership to withdraw their action of threatening and harassing public immediately otherwise we (UKLF) will not remain a silent spectator. The UKLF believed and accepted that revolutionary groups are formed for the cause of the people and, hence, we shall be compelled to take up any step to protect and safeguard the public and restore peaceful atmosphere which is our primary duty.
UKLF also appealed to the state government (Home Deptt.) to look into the matter and do the needful before things goes out of hands.
On the day of their home coming ceremony , Chief Minister of Manipur, O Ibobi Singh clearly stated and laid down some dos and don’ts to be followed by the surrenderees but the KNLF started unruly actions just after hardly five days of the ceremony which is much against to their acceptance of peace with the government.
