We express our strong condemnation of the Assam Rifles' recent biased post on X (formerly Twitter) concerning the display of the Zomi community flag. This post is not only unjust but also reflects a disturbing double standard in the treatment of ethnic communities in the region.
The Zomi flag is a cultural and ethnic symbol, representing the history, resilience, and identity of the Zomi people—proud citizens of India. It is not a political or secessionist emblem, and it has never been used to undermine the sovereignty of the nation.
The misrepresentation and targeting of the Zomi flag by a security force is both unwarranted and deeply hurtful to the sentiments of our community.
What is more alarming is the silence and inaction of the Assam Rifles and other security agencies in the face of actual secessionist displays—most notably the unrestricted public display of the Salai Taret flag by Meitei secessionist groups, who have openly voiced anti-national rhetoric and engaged in activities that threaten India's unity and territorial integrity. The selective scrutiny and one-sided narrative perpetuated by the Assam Rifles raise serious concerns about institutional bias and unequal treatment under the guise of national security.
The Zomi community remains committed to peace, democratic values, and the unity of India. We call for respect, equality, and justice—not just in words, but in actions that reflect the true spirit of the Indian Constitution.
