In our pursuit of peace, irrespective of community size, every group holds inherent rights that demand respect and mutual understanding.”
Expanding on his vision, he continued, “Initiating dialogues among all communities is paramount to achieving peace, paving the path for regional development. I am committed to earnestly pursuing this objective.” Expressing gratitude, the NPF candidate also commended and conveyed his joy to the Ching Tam Women Development Association for their endorsement in the forthcoming Lok Sabha Election.
