As a Naga woman in Nagaland, who has seen the crisis in Manipur and cried for her neighbour state, I am so proud of Manipur for voting a visionary and serious leader who is staunch in his political stance and whose goal is to rehabilitate Manipur. I’m crying happy and hopeful tears for Manipur ❤

I don't think so, I'd never welcome someone with one sided view into nagaland. He didn't even criticize biren singh 😂😂😂 which he should have. Now meities will say i am a kuki, no I'm not a kuki and i for a matter of fact clearly support what meities and what their concerns are, but what i fail to understand is why both communities refuse to accept fault and seek reconciliation, clearly this man isn't accepting the fact that biren singh has a hand on the violence and even the kukies fail to accept their faults too.

Either way they're still very backward and population is so low. Don't give misinformation

@@Fivers235 as per the original comment, we are comparing the whole population of two categories.
