Kohima: Despite the Manipur government writing to the Nagaland government to immediately withdraw the bandh along the border, the Southern Angami Public Organisation (SAPO) informed that it would continue the indefinite bandh along NH-29 till forces from its traditional land are withdrawn.
Addressing a presser, Metekhrielie Mejura, president of Southern Angami Youth Organization (SAYO), the apex youth body of the Southern Angamis, said the matter is not an affair of the Nagaland government. The decision to call off the indefinite bandh depends on the Manipur government, he added.
When armed forces are withdrawn from Kezoltsa, the disputed area, he said that SAPO will lift the bandh. The bandh call was made by SAPO with regard to the non-withdrawal of the Manipur government’s armed personnel at Kezoltsa, and the continued undertaking of developmental activities by the Manipur government.
