With directives from the Kom Students' Union Manipur (KSUM), the Kom Students Union Churachandpur (KSU-C) was formed here yesterday with S Karong Kom, General President of KSUM formally inaugurating it at a simple ceremony, said the KSUC in a press communiqu� issued today.
Appealing the general public of the district to extend their support to the newly formed students union, the KSUC clarified that Komrem was a conglomerate of six tribes namely Aimol, Chiru, Koireng, Kharam, Kom and Purum but all other tribes but Kom has their own student union since long and hence the Kom community has felt that Komrem has no more validity in the present era and thus formed the KSUM last year.
Among others, K Sonkholen Kom, S Rocky Kom and M Silas Kom have been appointed as the president, VP and secretary respectively of the newly floated KSUC, said the union's I&P secretary, L Khupneilun Kom.
