Thadou is not Kuki, or underneath Kuki, or part of Kuki, but a separate, independent entity from Kuki. Any organization that incorporates “Thadou” but espouses Kuki and mis-portrays Thadou as Kuki or a part of Kuki is illegitimate and does not represent Thadou people and interest” – Thadou Convention, 2024.* Issued by: Thadou Hun Committee 2025 https://e-pao.net/epSubPageExtractor.asp?src=announcements.Ann_2025.HUN_Thadou_Cultural_Festival_2025_Theme_finalized
