Mary Kom writes to Amit Shah for the safety of Kom village

Imphal: Boxing star MC Mary Kom has requested Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s intervention to ensure that security forces take steps to prevent infiltration of the two rival groups into Manipur’s Kom villages. In a letter written to Shah on Thursday, Mary Kom said that the Kom community is an indigenous tribe of Manipur and one of the least populated minority tribes.

Padma Vibhushan awardee Mary Kom said, “We are all torn between two opposing communities… My community is suspected from both sides and we are caught between various problems… Weak internal governance and being a small community Since we are not able to fight against any force that has intruded into our jurisdiction. “We seek the help of the security forces to stop the infiltration of the two rival groups into the Kom villages.

The former Rajya Sabha member urged all deployed members of the Indian Army, paramilitary forces and state forces to impartially discharge their responsibilities for the safety of the population and ensure success in their efforts to maintain peace and normalcy in the state. He urged all people in Manipur, especially the Meitei and Kuki Jo communities, to come together, put aside their differences and restore peace and normalcy in the state. Mary Kom said, “We all need to stick together. We must put aside our differences and hurts.
