'don't cross the line' manipur mp leishemba sanajaoba slams mizoram's vanlalvena over conflict resolution remarks
NEW DELHI: Manipur's Rajya Sabha member Leishemba Sanajaoba criticised Mizoram MP K Vanlalvena's suggestion for separate administrative units for Meiteis and Kuki-Zos in Manipur. Sanajaoba urged Vanlalvena to avoid interfering in Manipur's affairs.Vanlalvena, a leader of the Mizo National Front (MNF), proposed the solution in an interview with PTI, stating that the two communities should be administered separately due to the deep divide.
‘The hill tribes can't go to the valley. Similarly, the Meiteis no longer dare to go to the hill areas. New administrative units should be created in lands occupied by both the Meiteis and the ethnic Kuki-Zo people to bring a lasting solution and end the conflict,’ Vanlalvena said.
Sanajaoba, responding to Vanlalvena's comments, took to social media platform X, stating:
‘My friend, Don't cross the line.. Please confine in your state issues.. Stop interferences in Manipur's issues.. Be a good neighbour.’
The ethnic violence in Manipur has resulted in over 250 deaths since May of last year. Vanlalvena also called for the removal of Manipur's current government and the implementation of President's rule as an immediate measure to curb the violence. He believes this period would allow the central government to assess the situation and demarcate land occupied by both communities.
