Meanwhile, the United People's Front (UPF) and the Kuki National Organization (KNO) have opened National Highway-2 in Kangpokpi district. Both these organizations belong to the Kuki community, which had kept the highway closed, but the highway was opened after an appeal by Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
