The UNC has directed all Naga tribe presidents to ensure that their respective tribe do not participate in tomorrow's Manipur Tourism Festival.

"In pursuit of the last NPC of November 4, 2005 the UNC hereby direct all concerned not to co-operate with the programme sponsored by the government of Manipur.

The stand of the UNC is loud and clear and therefore (Naga) tribe presidents are directed to shoulder responsibility that his/her tribe refrain from such programmes," announced the United Naga Council.
