The National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN-IM) has condemned what it described as an “unwarranted incident” that took place on September 8, 2025, at Molnom Kuki Village in Ukhrul District, where alleged Kuki militants stopped a public bus travelling between Sinakeither and Imphal.
According to a statement issued by the Wung Tangkhul Region (WTR) of the GPRN/NSCN, “the very manner of the Kuki militants that entered the bus to check the mobile phones of the passengers is not only provocative but playing with the nerves of NSCN.”
The WTR of GPRN/NSCN stated that it “condemns the uncultured Kuki militants in the strongest terms.” It further warned: “We shall put on record that any such undesirable act to spread fear and insecurity among the travelling passengers in the Naga areas shall be responded in the befitting manner.”
The statement added that the NSCN “shall henceforth remain vigilant to check the activities of the Kuki militants.”
