During the ceremony, floral tributes were offered to “revolutionary cadres who had sacrificed their lives in the course of the revolutionary struggle, along with a two-minute condolence salute in their honor. The reading of the chairman’s annual message, which emphasizes the importance of critically examining the revolutionary movement’s situation and the necessity to launch a discourse on ideology and tactics, is a prominent feature of the function. Captain Tamba of MYL, KYKL read the message”, said the release.
“Speaking at the ceremony, ‘Lt Col’ Ingba made the point that it is critical to unite all revolutionary groups in Kangleipak to fight Indian colonialism’s ever-growing cultural invasion, which includes imposing the Hindi language on people of WESEA region. Also, he emphasized that the best way to lead the people to victory over Indian colonialism would be to unite all revolutionary organizations under a common political ideology”, stated the release.
H Ibomcha, “the army chief”, MFL, KCP, speaking at the celebration, stressed that even before “we have liberated Kangleipak from the colonial yoke of Indian imperialists, we, the Kangleichas must establish our own economy and not rely on handouts from mainland India. All of our means of production are taken away from us by the Indian colonial process, leaving us fully reliant on them in order for them to maintain colonial dominance in the region”.
In line with the chairman’s message, he stressed the urgency of beginning an ideological debate to re-energize the revolutionary struggle and the necessity of moving beyond factional politics, which has become a culture among the Kanglei revolutionary class”, said the release issued by KYKL.
