KCP (MC- Progressive) sends Human Rights Day message

IMPHAL | Dec 9

The proscribed Kangleipak Communist Party KCP (MC – Progressive) said upon the arrival of International Human Rights day on December 10, the organisation sends blessings to the oppressed people of the state, to regain the power to reclaim their human rights.

A release signed by chairman Chingkhei said the people of Kangleipak had been turned into victims of human rights abuse even since the state fell into the clutches of colonial master India.  On December 10, 1948, it was declared by the United Nations General Assembly that every human being has the right to life, right to live in an independent society and economy, it said.  

The day is being observed by all as the international Human Rights Day, it continued.

In case of Manipur, its people are still suffering from human rights abuses still being inflicted by the colonial master, India, it alleged. The colonial India, even if she pretends to have love for the WESEA region, is still scheming for the complete obliteration of the indigenous people of WESEA, the release alleged. Moreover, the rights given by Indian constitution are like poison in the region, it added.   

The draconian law AFSPA, 1985 act allows the colonial forces to kill anybody on suspicion, it further said adding now they aim for making the WESEA region into a shield for India in case the country faces an attack from its neighbouring countries. The puppet government constantly puts a wedge in the relationship between hilly and valley people and turn them into enemies, the release alleged. The valley people are being seduced by festivals while the hilly people are being cajoled by packages.

Artificial festivals belonging to outsiders and non locals, which do not connect with the people, are being held countless times and have enchained the life of the people, it said.

Even if the people complain about the pathetic conditions of the roads, the puppet government has turned deaf ears, turning them into graveyards, it alleged. To subdue the production of local crops, rice has been distributed by the government cheaply on the price of Rs. 3 only, it added. 

To save oneself from the onslaught of the puppet government to obliterate the different communities of the state, one must know his rights as the only means of survival, it said. One’s rights must be decided by one’s language and script, faith, culture and traditions left by the ancestors, it said adding all should trace the origins of Kangleipak society and break the chains of the colonial India, to create a society safeguarded by one’s own human rights.
