But it is very unfortunate that the natural rain has affect the turn up for the programme.

 "This might be first ever Cultural Meet in the world organised solely for Peace and Harmony under heavy rainfall", mentioned Hangshing.

Hangshing further lamented that, rain could not stop us from striving to achieve Peace and Harmony within us. The success of today's meet solely depends upon the cooperation render by the participants and the general public besides leaders of civil bodies organisation, church leaders, NGOs, village chiefs and the state govt. added Hangshing.

While appreciating the participants participating in such difficult situation, Hangshing noted that if the participant cultural troupe and the invitees take the matter as a mere organised programme no one will be available here today for the meet rather though less, all the participants take the matter as a striving effort to achieve peace and harmony they turn up bearing the heavy rainfall. Therefore i am very much glad to them all expresses Hangshing.

 "The turn up is less than expected due to rainfall. Though less, the love of peace and harmony shown by these few participants give us a new hope that we could for sure success in meeting our theme. For, these few turn up are those who really care and love for Peace", added Hangshing.

 "Prizes does not matter though the committee arrange to show its happiness. To me you all are winner of the meet and you display the first class cultural dance of your respective ethnic tribes", noted Hangshing.
 Mentioned may be made that today's cultural meet first prizes amount of Rs.15,000 has been donated by  Haokholal Hangshing.

 Guite further lamented that, the desires and hope of the government is also the same that all ethnic group of the state lives together in oneness, peace and harmony while expressing gratitude to the wide ranging minded and supportive Manipur state government for having been given us a great opportunity through helping while organising this type of Cultural meet to promote peace and harmony particularly within the ethnic tribes of Sadar Hills by displaying together their respective unique cultural identity.

"The prizes, the committee arrange for you is no match to the beautiful, unique and very much attractive cultural dance bearing all hardships under the rain.

The most important thing is the cultural dance you display to show our oneness and brotherhood thereby striving for peace and harmony", added Guite.
