THE Kuki National Army–B (KNA-B) has expressed serious concern over the recent violence in Litan Sareikhong Village and appealed to both communities to exercise restraint and responsibility.
In a press release issued by the Office of the Kuki National Organisation (KNO), Government of Kuki State, General Headquarters, the group stated that the Litan incident should not be viewed as a communal conflict. According to KNA-B, the incident began as a scuffle between individuals and must not be misinterpreted or expanded beyond its local context.
The statement warned that any attempt to widen the issue into a broader ethnic confrontation would only deepen suffering and instability in the region.
KNA-B also expressed concern over what it described as an attempt to burn Chassad village along the Indo-Burma border, allegedly by Tangkhuls. The group stated that it would protect its people and ancestral land. It further noted that as Tangkhuls and Kukis live together even in Burma (Myanmar), peaceful relations would benefit both communities.
Calling for an immediate cessation of all acts of arson and hostilities, KNA-B urged Christian communities to remain cautious and avoid falling into what it termed "classic escalation traps" set by inimical forces.
The statement concluded by emphasizing that peace, restraint, and reason must prevail.
