Abul abaal I theina diing un delimitation bang ahiei chi gen chien tadi lei ahoi ding hi.

Delimitation: India pumpi ahilou leh gamkai khat sunga constituency khat in ahuomna gamgi khhentelna chilei a thei nop ding hi. (The act or process of fixing limits or boundaries of territorial constituencies in a country or a province having a legislative body). Tam delimitation ahileh India kumpi in 1947 kum pat kum 1952, 1963, 1973 leh 2002, livei abawlna ahita hi. Tam nasep a umna diing in India kumpi in Delimitation Commission sep zel ua, tam commissionte thutanna pen thutawp, court a zong he theilou ahi va yiah hi. (In India, such Delimitation Commissions have been constituted 4 times – in 1952 under the Delimitation Commission Act, 1952, in 1963 under Delimitation Commission Act, 1962, in 1973 under Delimitation Act, 1972 and in 2002 under Delimitation Act, 2002.)

Tam delimitation ahileh India danbupi Article 82 dungjuia kisimpina umzaw tenga bawl zel ahi. India kisimpina kum 2001 a umpen kum 2003 December 31 in ki talangpanta a, tuachi’n kum 2004 apat tam nasep pat ahita hi. Tuni chiengin India pumpi, North East a Manipur, Nagaland, Arunachal leh adang khen khat chilou zawsieng ahita hi. Tunia eilawi in I buoipi pilpel uh ahileh kum 2002 Delimitation Act toh kisai ahi.

Hilehzong ST/SC te milip I hing ettha a, tua dungzui a bawl tuah ahing sawm chiang ua ST/SC te seat neiza suhpung hingngai in (a total seat lah punsah theilou) ahi chia tribalte punna pen Meiteite manna hingsua (amau seat 5 taan didan a um uh). Tuazieh mama ahi Meiteite’n pomthei lou a, 2001 census pumpi mawsah a court a heeh ua, tutan apaisuah theilou. Ei chouh akhaw nung pil I mah I chi leh Meiteite zong akhonung pil anahi laizang uh. Valong in!

1972-73 lai zong 1971 Census dungjui in delimitation ana um hi. Tuahunlai in Phaisat Constituency pen ana kisumang in Churachandpur ah constituency khat ana ki belap hi. Tuama bangin 59 Saikot AC zong ana kiguong hi. Tua ahi dungjui in India danbupi Article 81, 82, 170, 330 leh 332 zong siemtha ahilawhh ta hi.

Singtang gam teng zong chi zou sing, Zo suonte’n I nei sunsun uh Singngat Assembly sungthu themkhat hing kum nuom ing. Singngat AC ahileh Zoukam zangte’n eima louma banga I na ngaisut uh, I na kineisah mama uleh singdang leidia I na phal lou uh tam delimitation peisuo hitaleh MLA I neikiana ding uh pen van a ga bang diing ahita hi. Tuo ahiman in alien amengin I pan theina chiet ua I pan ua, ma I phu uh ngai hi.

Tutung delimitation ah Singngat 60 AC ana kichi den pen Singngat 38 AC chia hen din thu um hi. Thanlon A/C apat khuo 28 teng Singngat A/C a guonlut din propose um hi. Tualeh Singngat A/C apat khuo 48 tah (Sangaikot Area lam teng) ahileh Churachandpur East A/C a guon lut dia propose ahi. Kadei aw, tam tengpi muolsuo hita maw leh, eipi bang suo di la?!

Tam atung a teng tungsih henlen kei mimawl ngaidan in ta bang in kibawl leh chi ahinalai zawsop hi. Churachandpur A/C apat Lamjang, Phhaibem, Zoumun lehh Gelzang te Singngat ah kibelap henlen, Saikot A/C apat in Tuining, Buallian, Phaizawl, Zomi Zion, PN khovung, Ngurte, Khuangnung, Saipum, Mualsan, Ngoiphai leh Sehken te zong Singngat A/C ah ki belap tou nalai leh chi deithusam ahi.

Tua draft umdan in Churachandpur Dist sungahh Thanlon ki sumang a, Lamka area ah khat kikoi be hi. CCpur North, CCPur East leh CCPur West in kikhen hi.

Hmmmm, My Humble Suggestions:

01. Singtanggam a apat phaigam a lai simdi. Singtanggam ma a tenden di.

02. Singtanggam hoitah a puoh di, I kho hausatna munte maw zuahzuah lou di.

03. Singtanggam mun leh muol lien pipi lei a mi ateengdi I khop ding uh.

04. Singtanggam I taisan tam laisie, I gam solkal in reserve chia hing khawm ding uh.

ZOU ORGANISATION DELHI PRESS RELEASE

Tragic Truck Accident in Manipur claimed 20 innocent lives and injured 34 others.

A tragic Truck Accident took place on 17th January 2008 when the Bridge over the Ngasuan River collapsed under the weight of the Truck. The Ngasuan River is located near Behiang Village in Singngat Sub-Division of Churachandpur District, Manipur. In this accident 20 innocent lives were lost and 34 others sustained serious injuries. The death and the injured include Women and Children. It is reported that the condition of some of those injured and presently hospitalized are very critical.

In order to condole the death and share the pain and grief of the bereaved family members, a Joint Condolence Meeting was held on 18th January, 2008 at Manipur Tikendrajit House, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi under the auspices of the Zou Organization Delhi. The Meeting was attended by hundreds of mourners from various Delhi based organizations from Manipur such as the Zomi Christian Fellowship (ZCF), Kuki Worship Service (KWS), New Testament Baptist Church (NTBC), Mary Grace Children Home (MGCH), Delhi Hmar Welfare Association (DHWA), Tiddim Chin Development Society (TCDS), Young Paite Association Jt. HQ. Delhi(YPA), Zou Sangnaupang Pawlpi (ZSP), Siamsinpawlpi Jt. HQ. Delhi(SSPP), Kuki Students Organization (KSO), Hmar Students Association Jt. HQ. Delhi(HSA), and Khangthah Zuun Pawl (KZP).

One Minute Silence was observed by all the mourners as a mark of respect to the departed souls and expression of heartfelt sympathy to all those who sustained injuries.

Speaking on the occasion, representatives of all the above organizations pointed out that the bridge was newly constructed which was inaugurated as recently as in November 2007. They were agitated to point out that the bridge was constructed by using substandard material, not fit even for making household items, let alone a bridge over the only national highway of the area. The quality of wood used for construction of the bridge was so dismal that it could be torn apart with naked hand. To that extend, all the Speakers strongly condemned the callous attitude of the Government of Manipur. The Government of Manipur is solely responsible for the tragedy and therefore the entire mourners very strongly demand that the following action be taken immediately:

1. The Government of Manipur must accept its responsibility for the tragedy since the Bridge collapsed as it was constructed by using dismal quality of wood that could be torn apart with the naked hand and as such it was unable to withstand the weight of a single loaded Truck;

2. The Government of Manipur must institute a Judicial Enquiry to thoroughly investigate the circumstances under which the bridge collapsed from every possible aspect, fixed responsibility and recommend corrective measures that should be taken to avoid recurrence of similar tragedy in future;

3. The Government of Manipur must take suitable punitive action against the guilty;

4. The Government of Manipur must pay ex-gratia to the families of those killed at the rate of

Rs. 5 lakhs per victim;

5. The Government of Manipur must also pay compensation at the rate Rs. 2 lakhs each to those who sustained injuries apart from providing free treatment and medicines.

My First Visit to Manipur Bhavan in National Capital — A Personal Account

It is perhaps ironic that although I hail from Manipur and have been residing in New Delhi for several years, my first visit to Manipur Bhavan occurred only on 20 November 2007. This delay itself may reflect a broader disconnect that many people from the Northeast experience while living in the national capital - physically present in Delhi, yet often distanced from the institutional spaces meant to represent their home states. I arrived at Manipur Bhavan around 9:00 a.m. for an official engagement. As one would reasonably expect from a state government establishment in the heart of the capital, I anticipated an orderly reception process.

CLEARING THE UNCLEARED MIND OF A DOUNTFUL MAN

By T. Zamlunmang Zo

It was in the year 2007, June the 29th. A group of a few guys were in a rented room in Munirka, New Delhi. While we were talking about something related to our community, all of a sudden, one of our fellow guy stop all of us in the middle of our discussion. He said, "I have a question to ask and need the answer right now, if you guys can answer I would really appreciate it". We all laughed with amazement; he again starts his words and raised this vividly worth answering question.

The worth answering question is "Why the name of the Zo/Zou is being neglected by the other Zomi community while writing or speaking about the Zomi, why it is not mentioned when some body speaks about the Zomis?".

After hearing such an unexpected and interesting question, we all make some kind of rustling sound at each other, one of our ignorant friend simply replied "it indicates that we are worthless to mention". By hearing this brainless and muddle headed response, I somehow got angry and make him shut his empty lunatic mouth. I asked all of them to listen carefully and tell them they should not disturb me while I am talking. So, I let them sit like a small kids surrounding their teacher and start narrating my lecture.

Dear friends, if you don't mind let me elaborate this topic a little bit deeper so as to understand and got the root points of my lecture. The the history of the Zo people, the Zo/Zou, as we all know is the only tribe, which treasured the originality/ancient history of the ZO/ZOU. After several research and studies which i have gone through, i was convinced that most of the dialects, i mean the Zo suon dialects comes from the Zo/Zou people. The Zo/Zou people are the one who first started to make understand our brethren that they too are Zo/Zou/Zomi. If you see in the history of the Zo/Zou people, the Zo/Zou speaking people are the people who called themselves Zo/Zou even while the others are unaware of their belongingness called us Zo/Zou naptol. To mention a few out of many worth mentioning ownership, I would like to tell you one more thing. The Zo/Zou people are known as the intepu or intepi of the Zomi. You may also heard that "Zou" is the tribe name of the particular Zou Community in Manipur and "Zo" is the name of all Zo decendants. This is bulshit and baseless. Zou may be a recognised tribe is Manipur but there is no reason of differentiating the spelling between Zo or Zou. It is one and the same. If you believe that Zo is for all the Zo decendants and Zou is only for a particular Zou community, you are 100 per cent misleaded.

For all these reasons, the recently awakened Zo suons deem it unnecessary to mention the word Zo/Zou while they speak about the Zomi, because they know that Zo/Zou is the owner or so to say, the intehpi or intepu. That means, they know that we are already in that very topic. Just to make you clearer, with my sincere apologies to our Zo brethren, While we talk about Zomi, one has to mention Paite Zomi/Zo, Thadou Zomi/Zo, Gangte Zomi/Zo, Simte Zomi/Zo, Tedim Zomi/Zo etc. etc., it is clear that one does not have to mention Zou/Zo Zomi. It signifies that Zou/Zo are already in the Zomi itself. As I have told you earlier, the other communities like Paite, Simte, Thadou, Gangte or others are the name which comes from/according to our dwelling place or comes from the name of the sons' of Pu Zou/Zo, we need to mention them while talking about Zomi.

After lecturing these short facts, my friends surprisingly greeted me, saying, wowwww!!!! Tungnung, you are incredible, where the hell did you get all this knowledge? "This is the fact that every one ought to know, it is simple, one can learn these things from our day-to-day life" said replied.

We then went out and have a cup of tea.

Note: This article may sounds intolerable or too much to teach a friend. If it hurts your sentiment, here is my apologies. SORRY!!
