Thousands of Kuki-Zo people in Churachandpur district in Manipur took out a rally on Thursday, pressing their demand for a separate administration in the light of the ongoing ethnic conflict in the State.
The rally organised by the Indigenous Tribal Leaders’ Forum, and other Kuki-Zo groups started on Thursday morning from the Churachandpur public ground and ended at the Peace Ground in Tuibong, a distance of around 3 km.
The protesters were wearing black throughout the march, which saw people raise slogans for separating from Manipur, and denouncing the Biren Singh-led State government along with radical Meitei groups like Arambai Tenggol and Meetei Leepun.
