“Due to the prevailing atmosphere in the state, where our frontline villages are under constant threat by the Meitei community and our martyrs remain unburied, we request people not to indulge in overtly conspicuous celebrations and other forms of enjoyment during these hard times. All communities and churches observe muted Christmas and New Year celebrations by observing just the normal church service and not organizing feasts and fellowship events (lengkhawm),” ITLF leader Ginza Vualzong stated.
