Ref.No.62/WKZIC-GHQ/(Memo)/2023-25,

"MEMORANDUM"
The 30th May 2025

To,

His Excellency, The Governor of Manipur, Shri. Ajay Kumar Bhalla.

Through:
Deputy Commissioner (DC), Churachandpur, Manipur.

Subject: Urgent Intervention Required: Complaint Against Zeliangrong Kindred - Inpui, Liangmei, Rongmei and Zeme Tribes under the banner of 'Committee on Protection of Indigenous Peoples' Ancestral Land' (COPIPAL)'s "Complete Ban on Kukis Movement" and Request for Arranging To-&-Fro Escort Team & Deployment of Heavy Central Forces (CF) along Kangpokpi-Churachandpur Highway stretching from Kangpokpi- Noney- Churachandpur, starting from MAKHAN (Kangpokpi) via PONGRINGLONG (Noney) upto JOUJANGTEK Village (Churachandpur).

Respected Sir,

We, the undersigned, bring to to your Excellency's Immediate Attention a grave and escalating situation in the Kangpokpi district, arising from a village-level land dispute between Khonsaram and Leilon Phaijang (hamlet) villages on the 5th April 2025. This issue has been hijacked by the Zeliangrong Kindred Tribes in the name of COPIPAL, who have unilaterally declared a "Complete Ban on Kukis Movement" upon the innocent whole Kuki community, in the area along Kangpokpi- Churachandpur Highway.

This declaration of COPIPAL led to highten tensions and restrictions on movement, and a palpable sense of fear among both Zeliangrong and Kuki communities, residing along the route. This volatile nature of the situation paves the potential for further escalation into ethnic tribal feud between the two communities. Wetherefore, urgently request the following measures to ensure the safety of all residents and commuters along the route peacefully in terms of physical and emotional securities, and initiate the below measures for the good of all as:_

i) Immediate Deployment of Central Forces (CF) along the Route and Area to prevent counter Ban.

ii) Withdrawal of the Ban which is deadly against the Indian Constitution Articles 19(1)(d)(e) & 19(5).

iii) Peaceful Resolution of the Dispute through Landholding documents of respective Villages.

iv) Protection of Rights of All communities in the Area both Zeliangrongs and the Kukis._

We believe that your Excellency's prompt action on these requests will surely help in de-escalating the situation, restoring peace and ensuring the rule of law in the effected areas.

Looking forward to your immediate attention in this matter.

Thanking you in anticipation.

With regards,

Sd/-(T. SAMUEL ZOU)
General Secretary

Sd/-(DR. TS HAOKIP)
  President
