At the vibrant 78th Zomi Namni celebrations in Churachandpur, Deputy Chief Minister Losi Dikho laid bare the Manipur government’s peace blueprint, centered on universal connectivity.
To press persons, he revealed CM Yumnam Khemchand Singh’s readiness for Kuki region tours upon invitation. Displacement reversal is key. ‘Peace and normalcy drive us; cabinet formation accelerates people-centric initiatives,’ Dikho noted.
Security hurdles had isolated Churachandpur, but no more. ‘We’re now doorstepping communities, absorbing views, debating solutions, and forging bonds,’ he detailed. Imphal access barriers are similarly tackled.
Kuki Zo-Meitei harmony? ‘Possible imminently; our engagements will catalyze it,’ he predicted. Displacee rehab sees successes, with expansions to remote zones underway despite logistics woes.
‘Uniform approach for valley and hills; full commitment to returnees,’ Dikho guaranteed. Flashbacks to Ukhrul’s Litang—where Tangkhul-Kuki frictions eased via government huddles—and Thadou’s peace advocacy and governmental aid were highlighted.
On Congress’s 2027 power grab claims, Dikho laughed off the ‘propaganda mindset.’ ‘Victory lies with us, backed by voters,’ he proclaimed. This outreach surge marks a pivotal phase in Manipur’s quest for ethnic cohesion.
