‘Yembung is the name of a major river which is flowing through within the Kebang village. Thus, it is also worth mentioning here that the departments like PHC Yembung, Micro Hydel Yembung, PWD, PHED etc are all mistakenly written as Yembung instead of writing Kebang’, read the letter.

They further informed that Kebang village is one of the prominent, well-known and a historical villages since the British-Era; as such manipulation and degrading its historical importance create a strong resentment among villagers both sentimentally and emotionally.
