LAMKA, November 1: The Kut festivity did catch up with the people of Sangaikot TD Block in CCpur district.

Presenting the key note address on the occasion, the chairman of the Kut celebration committe, Sangaikot block Pumtulthang expressed his hope that this celebration will not be the last celebration in the Sangaikot area.
Speaking at the function, as chief guest T Baite said, “it’s high time that we retrospect on our recent past Kut celebrations as the celebration has been in recent times, overshadowed by the beauty contest and the Chavang Kut, of the fore fathers, has become Miss Kut or Zuu(alcohol) Kut”.
“We must make sure that we leave a legacy of which the next generation will be proud of the way we uphold the Kut spirit which is one big day of joy for all of us.”
The chief guest also say that as a member of the district council, he had nursed a plan where the people of his constituency will get all possible assistance, but that is not possible in one go; and further asked the people for patience.
Sangaikot block had been unfortunate due to its location as the place between two Assembly Constituencies but now the MLA of Saikot A/C and Singat A/C have started working together and the area will get benefit very soon, he said.
