KMSS on Sunday threatened the Government of dire consequences if it further files cases against Akhil Gogoi.

The organization made it clear that if the government resorts to nefarious tactic to keep the KMSS president in jail till the Lok Sabha poll, the result would be a disastrous.

The High Court on Monday will hear the a few bail petitions moved by Gogoi’s counsel a few days after he procured bail in a few cases.

Appeal to stop violence in Manipur

We are deeply concerned about the continuing ethnic violence in Manipur between the Meitei community and the tribal Kuki and Zo communities. We demand an immediate halt to this violence that is causing large scale disruption of lives, livelihoods and properties and unleashing even more terror among people. The immediate trigger to this violence was an April 2023 Manipur High Court order advising the state government to grant the Meitei community (members of which now have either OBC or in some cases SC status) the status of Scheduled Tribe. Thereby, the Meitei community would have access to land that is currently reserved for tribal communities. Several spates of violence broke...

Then why is GOI silent on the allegations of Assam CM Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma being involved with Kuki militants in the Manipur election in 2017? Bora demanded a NIA probe into the allegations and arrest of Sarma under NSA Act. Meanwhile, he also stated...
