The United Naga Council (UNC) has branded a Watchpoint Journal report on its 24 April meeting at Tahamzam as “fabricated and misleading,” denying any “war mandate” resolution was adopted.
No War Mandate Passed
The UNC Publicity Wing stated Monday that no such mandate was discussed or approved during the gathering. “In keeping with Naga customary practice, the house unanimously affirmed that the Naga people must collectively face the confronting issues on land, with particular attention to Ukhrul, Chandel, Tamenglong, and undivided Senapati district,” the statement clarified.
Unity Before Action
Participants agreed in the “spirit of unity and collective wisdom” to work out proper modalities through wider consultations before any course of action. The UNC reaffirmed its “Forward With Unity” commitment, insisting no district opposes Naga interests.
Warning Against Division
The council urged Nagas not to be misled by divisive reports, promising official updates solely through UNC channels amid heightened ethnic land tensions across Manipur’s hill districts.
