A joint preservation declaration program was held on June 5, 2025, at the Meguiki River main bridge with EAC Tening, Ihoilung Chuilo. The program was organized by Tening Village Youth Organization and Nsong Youth Organization.

While declaring a one-kilometer-long preservation area open, EAC Chuilo praised the youth organization for taking the initiative to protect fish and their habitats from overexploitation, which can lead to a decline in fish population and disrupt the natural ecosystem. He urged both the Nsong village and Tening village youth organisations to prohibit all forms of fishing in the designated Khalun preservation area.

The village youth organization also passed a resolution to prohibit all types of fishing in the conservation area.  Any individual or group that violates the resolution will face severe consequences, including imposing a fine of Rs. 10,000, they added. The preservation area extends from Nchum giu (main bridge) to Ntiang giu (hanging bridge).

Other who spoke at the events includes Tening village council chairman and youth president of Tening and Nsong village, Gbs, and Range officers.

The event garnered attendance from various dignitaries including representative from both the village councils and Administrative bodies.
