IMPHAL, Sep 12: The Zeliangrong Students’ Union (ZSU) has submitted an open letter to the AICC Observer, PCC and DCC Manipur to bridge the hills and the valley divide. Stating that Manipur is constituted with tribes, castes and creed, the ZSU has stated that the ruling government led by O. Ibobi Singh has a majority representation from the Imphal valley. The ZSU further stated that the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly and most of the Cabinet Ministers are from the valley area and the current SPF Government has only two representatives from the Naga community.
