Dimasa Students Union Nagaland (DSUN) has strongly opposed the bifurcation of seven Dimasa Kachari villages from Dimapur district by the State government while announcing creation of new districts recently.
Observing that another new district were created and a tribe was officially recognised overnight by overlooking their appeal, union\u2019s president Faihamti Longmailai and general secretary Hamrongdau Difoe in a press release said they were deeply disheartened that their cries for their rights based on history were being ignored.
They said the creation of new districts were an injustice to the whole Dimasa community due to segregation of seven Dimasa villages from Dimapur despite the fact that Dimapur ruins, also called Kachari Rajbari and looked after by Archaeological Society of India (ASI), proved the existence of Dimasa Kachari kingdom since medieval period.
They asserted that DSUN would in no way accept this \u201cbetrayal\u201d by the State government against \u201cour community\u201d and strongly opposed the decision of bifurcating Dimasa Kachari villages as this division was completely non-consensual, arbitrary and in no way protected the rights of \u201cour community\u201d, but only \u201cmurdered\u201d the aboriginality of the entire Dimasa Kachari community.
The DSUN leaders therefore demanded an amendment to the State government\u2019s December 20 notification and provide justice to the community, failing which they threatened that the community would take vigorous actions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
