Most of the Kuki MLAs irrespective of their party affiliations are unlikely to attend the Manipur Assembly session slated to be called from August 21, according to leaders from the community.

An apex Meitei organisation COCOMI, which has been spearheading demands for an early session of the assembly to “unanimously” reject demands for separate administrative units for Kukis, however, claimed that it would ensure safety of tribal MLAs if “they really want to come.”
