Independence Day Special: Manipur - Ex-Servicemen Vow To a Resolve to Stay United in a Divided Land

UNIFORM UNITES!

As India celebrates the 77th Independence Day, the Nation has come together with a stronger resolve for unity and diversity. The wounds of Manipur is felt by one and all across the Nation. Team NTT caught up with Ex-servicemen in Imphal, who all belong to one community but their hearts beat for their counterparts from the other communities. They have all served in Indian Army and shared their experience of service to the Nation, one that wouldn't have been possible without the support of others who might have belonged to a different community or ethnicity. Tears rolled down the eyes of soldiers who long to meet their friends. "We will meet soon" is what they promised to each other. They speak over phone with soldiers from different communities everyday to keep the hope alive that this divide in Manipur will come to an end soon and they will get to meet each other sooner. Manipur as a state is one of the highest contributor in per capita ratio to Indian Armed Forces. While in service, people from both communities have fought for the Nation to protect the integrity of India and thus they are bewildered as how this divide in Manipur is possible when the binding emotion is India, the patriotism. The soldiers say, nothing can and will ever be able to divide Indian Armed Forces and that the uniform will unite the people of Manipur once again. They are certain, the uniform will lead by the example of unity as our soldiers irrespective of their communities or ethnicities will stand up each time, every time for the sake of the motherland and will fight with their last drop of blood for the Nation, to protect the Nation and to protect each other.
