AAMSU Withdraws Advisory Issued to Mizos Living in Assam

Assam DGP GP Singh shared the student body's clarification on Twitter, along with the organization's decision to withdraw the prior advisory
The All Assam Manipuri Students’ Union (AAMSU) issued a clarification saying that its earlier press statement was misinterpreted as quit notice to Mizos living in Barak Valley of Assam.
On Monday, AAMSU issued a press note to advise the Mizo people living in Barak Valley to vacate at the earliest “for their own safety”.
The Assam Director General of Police (DGP), Gyanendra Pratap Singh, shared the student body’s clarification on Twitter, along with the organization’s decision to withdraw the prior advisor
“Please be circumspect in reporting. The call has been withdrawn immediately. Let’s together strive to build peace,” DGP Singh tweeted while sharing the clarification notices.
The clarification mentioned, “As seen in some electronic medias and FB pages, the recent press statement of AAMSU is misinterpreted as quit notice to Mizos from Barak Valley. AAMSU only advises the Mizo Missionaries in Meitei village to take precautions for their own safety as the act of Mizoram government has caused anger upon Manipuris in Assam. So far the Mizo missionaries have been living within the Meiteis as families and we shall continue to stay in harmony forever.”
“In the interest of peaceful coexistence between the two communities the statement issued by AAMSU CC ref.No.: AAMSU-C/C/10/PN/07/23 dated on 24-07-23 has been withdrawn. AAMSU always stands for peace and harmony,” it further added.
This comes after the Peace Accord MNF Returnees Association’s (PAMRA) advisory, which was issued on July 21 and caused an exodus of Meiteis living in Mizoram, including students.
AAMSU has urged the Cachar district administration to provide relief camps to the refugees as soon as possible.
