United Naga Council bars Congress MP Alfred Arthur and 2 others from public roles for 7 years

The United Naga Council (UNC) in Manipur has barred Congress' Lok Sabha member-elect Alfred Kanngam S. Arthur and two other candidates, S. Kho John and Allyson Abonmai, from public platforms and leadership roles in Naga society for seven years. This action was taken as the trio allegedly defied UNC's position in the recent Lok Sabha elections, where Arthur defeated NPF's Kachui Timthy Zimik by 85,418 votes.
