Several people made beeline to the last day of Jubilee Rütso (Sekrenyi Special) of the Keneikhrie Peli (No.12) here at T. Khel, Kohima village. Several dignitaries including minister for health & family welfare Imkong L. Imchen, minister for youth resources & sports Merentoshi R. Jamir, parliamentary secretaries Dr. Nicky Kire, C.L. John, Kipili C. Sangtam and advisor NRE and Music Task Force Khriehu Liezietsu graced the occasion.
The idea behind organizing Sekrenyi Special is to promote and preserve the rich culture and traditions which is diminishing day by day. Sekrenyi is the premier festival of Angami Nagas.
Ranging from age 30 and above, Keneikhrie Peli (No.12) having a strength of 80 plus members, has already constructed a waiting shed at Sepfuzou. It has also conducted a medical camp at Chedema.
Meanwhile, the Keneikhrie Peli (No.12) will host Tsütuonuomia Sekrenyi 2013 Inter Peli Meet on March 16 at Government LP School Ground, T. Khel from 9:00 AM onwards. Peli No 10- 17 will compete for the indigenous games at the meet.
