Bamboo, commonly known as poor man’s timber, has now gained the epithet ‘green gold’. One could find it hard to believe, but it has been proven that bamboo survived the atomic devastation of Hiroshima in 1945. The plant provided the first re-greening of Hiroshima closer to ground zero after the atomic bombardment. Among its myriad qualities, the growth rate of bamboo is amazingly fast. No plant on the planet features a faster growth rate, as maintained by experts. Bamboo can be harvested in one to five years, while hardwood trees take at least forty years before they can be harvested. It can be a viable alternative for hardwoods, and therefore, bamboo promises to be one of the highly reliable renewable resources of the planet. On the 6th World Bamboo Day, an event which has been gaining momentum across the world, the organisers of Manipur edition deserves commendation. In lieu of organising the function, as most often is the case, somewhere in Imphal, the organisers took it to a rural village. The choice of Kangsim village under Chandel District is even more appropriate. The village is inhabited by the Khoibu tribe, who are known for their skill in bamboo craft. Organising a function of this scale will certainly help in opening new vistas for the village craftsmen, who are directly involved in bamboo based productions. Exposure to new boundaries of bamboo craft and its potentials as a viable source of economy is a much needed exercise. Khangsim village of Manipur is just one example. In fact, bamboo is a plant that is abundant in the Northeast part of India, and also particularly in most parts of the State, either in the hills or plain. According to experts, the Northeast has two-third of the bamboo resources of the country. The State has more than 50 varieties of bamboo. This ‘Green Gold’, as in most Asian countries, has been integral to life of almost all the ethnic communities of Manipur. With the current global demand of bamboo products, the State of Manipur can surge ahead, for which a right direction and serious initiative are needed. The National Bamboo Mission, NBM in this regard has an important role to play, with its objectives to promote growth of bamboo; to promote marketing of bamboo products, and to promote and develop technologies of bamboo based products. With its objectives, NBM envisages to promote employment opportunities to the rural poor and marginalised craftsmen. Under its mission, State chapters of Assam, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura already have their own State bamboo policy. The State of Tripura is well ahead of its counterparts in the Northeast. Tripura has been the first State to have Bamboo Park in the Country. The State had even tied up with China’s Nanjing Forestry University, for development of the park in 2007. Disgracefully, the Manipur State chapter of the NBM has been in slumber, without a State bamboo policy. All these while, the State has been trying to promote tourism, without giving attention to the ‘Green Gold’. Bamboo industry and its products can be one of the vital components of tourism industry. A resource which is available in abundance has been neglected. But there are few people, who have been working hard for promoting bamboo industry without any support from the government. Perhaps, they are light at the end of the long tunnel, however faint the glow may be.

Public mourn mayhem, TSL responds with 12-hour bandh
UKHRUL, September 18: Former president of Tangkhul Shanao Long (TSL), the apex Tangkhul women organisation, AS Dinah and her college-going niece were killed while a shopkeeper and his son were grievously wounded in a powerful bomb blast that rocked Ukhrul town’s busiest marketplace Viewland Bazaar on Wednesday evening.
Described as the cruellest explosion ever in the town, the powerful bomb blast occurred after suspected cadres of a certain militant outfit reportedly hurled a hand grenade inside a gunny bag containing nails that was kept at the entrance of M/S Nitu Glass, a hardware store located at Viewland in Ukhrul town around dusk on Wednesday.
Eye-witnesses said that around 5:20 pm proprietor of the store identified as Rajendra Chaudhary, 56 and his son Gudu Chaudhary, 35 were standing at the store entrance and removing goods to close the shop for the day when the bomb went off critically injuring Rajendra, his son Gudu and AS Dinah, 52 and her niece Lansophy Tangva, 23 who were passing by at that time.
The four were immediately rushed to the Ukhrul District Hospital for first aid treatment where Lansophy Tangva succumbed to severe head injury around 6 pm.
After first aid treatment, AS Dinah was referred to Imphal while Rajenrda and his son were shifted to CHRSC, a private clinic in Ukhrul for further treatment. The father-son duo who sustained injuries on legs and chest, are now stated to be out of danger.
However, after departing from UDH at around 8 pm, AS Dinah succumbed to multiple injuries she sustained all over her body and legs while on the way to Imphal soon after crossing Lambui on the Imphal-Ukhrul road around 9:30 pm.
Both victims AS Dinah and her niece Lansophy Tangva daughter of T Wungpam are said to be from Nungpi Khullen/Hirei village in Ukhrul district.
Lansophy was a second year BA student at William Pettigrew College in Ukhrul.
Soon after the blast, Ukhrul police and Assam Rifles rushed to the spot and inspected the spot after cordoning off the area.
No arrest has been made in this connection though. Police have claimed that the explosive device used by the miscreants in the attack could be a Chinese hand grenade hurled from a short distance.
Ukhrul police have registered a case in this connection.
No group or party has so far claimed responsibility for the Wednesday blast. And the motive behind the bomb attack could not be ascertained although sources have said that monetary demands to the hardware store could be behind the attack.
Meanwhile, decrying the heinous crime of bombing killing innocent lives, Tangkhul Shanao Long (TSL) imposed a 12-hour shutdown from 6 am till 6 pm in Ukhrul town on Thursday bringing normal life to a grinding halt. All sorts of vehicles stayed off the road while all business establishments and educational institutions remained closed for the day.
In response to the bandh call, most people also stayed off the road till 3 pm when the Tangkhul Frontal Organizations had slated for a condolence service for the two victims at the Tangkhul Naga Long Assembly Hall. However, the programme was delayed on account of delay in the conduct of post mortem on the two bodies which were brought from Imphal.
The condolence service was attended by representatives and leaders from Tangkhul Shanao Long, United Naga Council, NPMHR, Naga Women Union Chandel, Tangkhul Shanao Long Imphal, Hunphun chief, Pettigrew College, Ukhrul, Tangkhul Leihsak Long, Raphei Katamnao Long, Tangkhul Katamnao Saklong, Tangkhul Naga Wungnao Long and Tangkhul Naga Long, among the hundreds of public members.
During the service, the gathering crowd paid their last respect to the two departed souls. Various speakers expressed their condolences while exalting the magnificent service rendered by (L) AS Dinah to the public in the capacity of president as well as general secretary of the Tangkhul Shanao Long.
AS Dinah had served as general secretary of TSL for two consecutive terms from 2001 to 2003 and from 2004 to 2007.
Thereafter, she went on to become president of the apex Tangkhul women organisation and served the community from 2007 to 2010.
Soon after the conclusion of condolence service at around 6:40 pm, the mortal remains of the two victims were transported to their native place Nungpi Khullen/Hirei village for the last rites.
