Kangleipak Kanba Lup appeals

IMPHAL, Jan 21
The Kangleipak Kanba Lup has stated that the title of the recently release book  'The Anglo-Kuki War 1917-19, Victory in defeat' authored by Colonel Chenji is misleading since the term 'Anglo-Kuki' implies that there existed a Kuki State in Manipur as a political entity or a Kuki nation.
The Lup in a press release maintained that what the Meiteis called the Khongsai Lal and the Thadou themselves refer to it as the Thadou Gall being termed as 'Anglo-Kuki War' has larger and longer political implications and seeds have already been sown for a Kuki Homeland by balkanizing Manipur.
Considering the above points, the Kanglei Kanba Lup suggested to Colonel Vijay Chenji to change the title of his book in the interest of all.
