President of the UCM Dilipkumar while announcing this reiterated the firmed stand of the committee in protecting the territorial integrity of the state.

He said, it's a wrongful step of the Government of India by efforting to allow entering Muivah in the state despite the state government Cabinet decision to ban his entry is an unfortunate incident.

It indicated that the Centre is also involved in the conspiracy to disintegrate Manipur.

Reiterating that Muivah cannot enter to the state where the cease-fire between the NSCN(IM) and GOI is not extended.

The crisis that generated through government of India's "appeasement policy" towards the NSCN had not yet been erased inspite of Congress led United Progressive Alliance came to power at the Centre, he recalled the contain of the memorandum.

The communal tension which is likely to be whipped up by the proposed entry of Muivah, general secretary of the NSCN(IM) at his home village at Somdal of Ukhrul district, should be the sole responsible for the Indian government, he warned.
