Atlak ning in leh chawmmi a si caah palhnak a um sual ah a tanglei ah Salai Bawi Lian Mang nih a tial ning tein mirang ca rel chih khawh a si.
Nothing can justify the actions of the authorities in Thantlang to deny a grieving family a chance to properly bury the young woman whose dead body was transported all the way from Malaysia. Preventing the body from entering the town only to be buried by the roadside was simply inhumane and even cruel.
Nothing, even an exceptional circumstance such as Covid-19 pandemic, justifies their actions. There has to be some sort of accountability in order to prevent future recurrence of things of this nature. This latest incident shines lights on the long-standing and deep-seated structural and systemic problems of race and cultural relations that need to be urgently addressed in this country.
