Lamka, Feb 5, 2026 — A chilling notice has surfaced following the formation of the new government on February 4, 2026, targeting three prominent Kuki-Zo Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) who took their oaths of office.

The document, issued under the letterhead of the "Office of the Village Volunteer, Eastern Zone, Kuki-Zo-Gam," offers substantial financial rewards for the killing of the three politicians. The notice identifies the targeted individuals as:
Nemcha Kipgen: Reward of Rs. 20 lakhs
L. M. Khaute: Reward of Rs. 10 lakhs
Ngursanglur Sanate: Reward of Rs. 10 lakhs
The "To Whom It May Concern" notice, dated February 4, states that rewards will be paid to any individual or group responsible for the deaths of these MLAs. Furthermore, the group has promised to provide "materials or logistical support" to anyone willing to carry out what they describe as a "mission."
The threat appears to be a direct response to the MLAs' decision to join the "popular government," a move that has seemingly caused a deep rift within local factions. The document bears the slogan "In defence of our Ancestral land" and is signed by the "Information & Publicity" wing of the Village Volunteers.
Local authorities have not yet issued an official statement regarding the authenticity of the letter, but security concerns for the three lawmakers have reached a critical level.
The move to join the new administration was seen by many as a step toward political stability, yet this latest development highlights the extreme volatility and personal danger facing elected officials in the region.
