The third edition of What India Thinks Today (WITT) of TV 9 network began on Friday. The conference was started by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the first day. On the second day also, all the veterans attended the conference. One of these was Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma. Himanta Biswa Sarma spoke openly on the problem of North East, the major state of Manipur. When he was asked why the central and state government could not bring peace in Manipur, he said that a Naga, a cookie and a maetai sit on the table and then the problem there will be understood.
Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the problem of Manipur has not been going on for two years. This is from the time of independence of the country. Three societies of Naga, Cookie and Maetai live together there. Himanta Biswa Sarma said that his self-confidence in each other should have been strong, it did not happen in so many years. Some people come from Myanmar there, people are also angry for that. This is a serious problem and there is no easy way.
Himanta Biswa Sarma said that Congress people say that this uproar of Manipur has been going on for two years, but they do not know anything about their own government. Today, what you are seeing there, this has happened there 5 to 6 times before. In 6-7 years, this problem continues to repeat there. Today social media, TV is more, it has been more promoted, but 2 to 3 thousand people have died in the same accident before.
Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the three castes that live together in Manipur… Naga, Cookie and Maitai have not been able to have confidence and self -confidence between them. There are many reasons for this. Maitai people live there, they are not tribals. People of Kuki society are tribal. Cookie people can buy land in the capital Imphal, but the people of Maitai cannot buy. Himanta Biswa Sarma said that I think the central government is serious about this problem. What she is working in Manipur right now, she is working on ending this problem in a final manner.
Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the problem of Manipur is not only from the time of the BJP government. This problem has been going on for the last 75 years. The Congress party is responsible for this. Himanta Biswa Sarma said that if you want to know about the real problem of Manipur, then you should talk to a Naga, a cookie and a maetai together on the table. Their dispute is not a small dispute. They have a very deep controversy. As the problem of Assam had taken three decades to end, we will have to wait a little for Manipur.
Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the three societies are also very difficult to talk to a cookie, a Naga and a maetai by sitting on the table. They do not have such an easy dispute. Naga people have been fighting for their rights for 75 years. Thousands of people have lost their lives. Maetai people are fighting for their rights. Today, 10 to 15 thousand Maetai has been displaced and gone to Myanmar. Similarly, cookies are also fighting for their rights. Seven to eight are organizations of these people, who are fighting for rights.
