Dimapur: The Zeliangrong Youth Organisation Nagaland (ZYON) has issued a fervent appeal to all members of the Zeliangrong community, irrespective of age, gender, or background, to join a rally organised by the Zeliangrong Students Union Nagaland (ZSUN) and Zeliangrong Mipui Organization (ZMO) to protest against the alleged rape of a minor by her biological father
The rally is scheduled to take place on Thursday, at the Local Ground in Samziuram Village, commencing at 10:00 AM.
These organisations have recently condemned in the strongest terms the distressing revelation of an alleged rape case involving a minor girl and her own biological father in Samziuram village, Peren district of Nagaland.
In a statement released on Wednesday, ZYON emphasised the gravity of the crime and called for collective voice and action from the community. “It is a crime that demands our collective voice and action. By standing up against it, we not only support the victims but also send a strong message that such behavior will not be tolerated in our society in the near future,” the statement read.
