Arunachal's Wancho Tribe Stands United Against Insurgency

The Wanchos, a tribal group inhabiting the insurgency affected Longding District of Arunachal Pradesh turned up in large numbers in Longding and Kanubari towns to stage a massive protest rally against the illegal taxation and abduction being carried out by NSCN K-YA in the region. Holding placards and banners inscribed with 'No Extortion', 'No Kidnapping' and 'No More Humiliation', the angry youth and villagers shouted slogans against the atrocities of NSCN K-YA. The deep resentment against the insurgent group was evident from the emotionally charged atmosphere during the protest rallies.
