Agartala, July 27 (PTI) The Mizoram Bru Displaced Peoples Forum (MBDPF), an apex body of the Bru/Reang refugees, today alleged a conspiracy was being hatched to create rift between the Mizo and Bru communities and demanded the Superintendent of Police conduct probe into the matter.
In a letter addressed to the SP, North Tripura district, A Sawinbunga, General Secretary of MBDPF informed some leaflets with a malicious campaign against the MBDPF, were found in several places of Kanchanpur sub-division recently.
The leaflets, written in local dialect, reportedly read that Elvish Chorkhy, R. Laldawngliana and A. Sawibunga, all MBDPF leaders, are heading the Bru National Army (BNA) outfit and working to target Mizo people in near future which is potently untrue, the letter said.
Alleging the distribution of such leaflets triggered tension among Bru and Mizo communities in Kanchanpur sub-division, a team of MBDPF met the Officer in Charge (OC), Kanchanpur sub-division and handed over some leaflets to him.The letter, sent to the SP, called for a probe in the matter.
The letter alleged the move is aimed to destabilize the relations between Mizo and Reang (Bru) in the sub-division where more than 30,000 refugees had been sheltered due to ethnic strife in neighbouring Mizoram.
