ITANAGAR: A delegation of All Mishmi Students Union members met Chief Minister Nabam Tuki on Mar 21 at Itanagar and submitted a 3-point memorandum demanding immediate arrest of Chakma people, who recently carried out extortion activities at Kathan village under Wakro circle of Lohit district.
“The Chakma people have encroached upon our land across Kathan area and the graph of crime continues to go up in the last 10 years in the area owing to criminal activities by them, the memorandum said. Further, the population of Kathan village is below 100, whereas the population of neighbouring Chakmas are more than 20,000 as a result of which the Mishmis are easily dominated by them, it said and appealed to the CM to arrange mechanism to prevent such extortion and anti-social activities in the area. To cope up with the situation AMSU also demanded establishment of IRBN headquarters at Kathan village under Wakro Circle of Lohit district instead of Haju and pleaded for issuance of special arm license to local villagers of Kathan, Tumba, Tillai and Manthi villages under Wakro circle to meet with any eventualities.
After patient hearing and going through the contents of the memorandum, Tuki assured to look into issues raised by the union.
