The recently concluded Lai Haraoba, portraying the ritual Tangkhul Nurabi/ Loutaba is distasteful and disrespectful. It presents the Tangkhul community in a very poor light. Such vulgarity as entertainment and art form is condemnable, TNWL stated.
Inat Yokhat Lup, a local group, has cautioned against participation of transgender in performing rituals during Lai Haraoba festival celebration, saying it must stop immediately.
