Imphal, Dec 9 NNN : Manipur People’s Party (MPP) MLA R.K Anand Friday said the newly floated political party, Naga People’s Party (NPF) is a “political umbrella” aiming and struggling for Naga integration in the State.
Speaking to the media on the sidelines of inauguration of a local community hall at Langthabal, Naoriya Pakhanglakpa Constituency MLA R.K. Anand said that peace parleys between NSCN-IM and the Government of India are still continuing that sometimes the peace process poses a “big threat” to Manipur, and the people of the State are not freed from threats caused by the talks.
The recently surfaced issue of “Supra-State Body” which has created a strained state in Manipur is now relatively calm following assurance given by the Prime Minister during his recent visit to the State, Anand said.
Prime Minister Dr. Manmohon Singh on his visit to Manipur on December 3 had clearly stated that there would be no compromise on the State territorial integrity which alleviated distress of the people, the MLA added.
Anand also strongly urged the political parties in the State to take care while fielding candidates where NPF candidates are contesting in the upcoming polls to the 10th Manipur Legislative Assembly to be strong enough to defeat the party.
