New Delhi, June 13: The Naga Students’ Union, Delhi (NSUD) has strongly condemned the brutal killing of six innocent Naga civilians in Manipur and submitted a memorandum to Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh through the Deputy Resident Commissioner, Manipur Bhawan, New Delhi, demanding immediate justice and accountability.
In the memorandum dated June 13, NSUD expressed “unmitigated fury and absolute horror” over what it termed as the “barbaric massacre” of six Naga civilians, including a Reverend, who were allegedly abducted from Leilon village on May 13 and later killed in a gruesome manner.
The Union described the incident as a “crime against humanity” and accused the state government of failing to protect innocent civilians. It stated that while the Naga community had shown restraint by previously releasing Kuki youths on humanitarian grounds, the response was met with “inhuman savagery.”
Raising serious concerns over the handling of the crisis, NSUD placed three key demands before the Manipur government:
- Immediate resignation or removal of Deputy Chief Minister Nemcha Kipgen, alleging conflict of interest and questioning her accountability in the matter.
- Abrogation of the Suspension of Operations (SoO) agreement, claiming it has become a shield for militant groups and contributed to lawlessness in the state.
- Fast-track investigation and strict legal action against those responsible for the killings, demanding swift justice without delay.
“The people of Manipur are watching. The Naga community is watching. We are finished with promises; we demand results,” the memorandum stated.
Copies of the memorandum were also forwarded to the Governor of Manipur, BJP National President, BJP Manipur State Unit, the Naga Students’ Federation (NSF), and the All Naga Students’ Association Manipur (ANSAM).
The memorandum was signed by NSUD President D. Sozilo Mao and General Secretary Keviyabei Angami, underscoring growing outrage and mounting pressure from Naga student bodies over the killings.
