Manipur Lawmakers Call for Review of SoO Pact Amid Denials of New AgreementPreviousNext

In Manipur, MP Angomcha Bimol Akoijam urged the Union Ministry of Home Affairs to review the 2008 Suspension of Operations (SoO) agreement with Kuki militant groups, citing alleged violations including extortion and violence. Meanwhile, the Kuki National Organisation and United People's Front denied reports of a new SoO pact, emphasizing that the existing agreement remains in effect and clarifying that territorial integrity references are political measures without legal implications. Both sides call for careful examination and official communication on the issue.
