On the other hand, the All Tribal Students Union, Manipur (ATSUM) had appreciated the stand of the district CSOs in support of the boycott call to “Go to Hills 2.0”.

This was stated in an appreciation note issued from the department of the Information and Publicity wing of the tribal student body.

Earlier on September 13, a consultative meeting with the CSOs of the Senapati together with ATSUM was held where the meeting resolved to boycott the program in protest against the state Govt’s refusal to introduce the Manipur (Hill Areas) ADC Bill, 2021 in the state assembly and the unscrupulous reason over the withdrawal of the unconstitutional order of the Manipur Legislative Assembly Speaker.

The press note further mentioned that the decision of the district administration, Senapati to reschedule its “Go to Hills 2.0” program only shows its inability to withstand the staunch opposition exhibited by the district CSOs, Senapati.

ATSUM lauded the resilience and resolve of the Senapati CSOs in showing unity and integrity for the cause of the tribal people’s movement, it added.
