Kezol–tsa has been the center stage of dispute between the Mao Council of Manipur and the Southern Angami Public Organization (SAPO) of Nagaland. Both parties have been stalking claim for Kezol–tsa forest and Dzüko Valley for the last many years.[2]

In early 2001 a rest house constructed by the Southern Angami Public Organization at Kezol–tsa was destroyed by suspected Songsong villagers and this led to tension between Mao people and the Southern Angamis. On enquiry made by Memai Council of Mao, it was found that some youths from Songsong village had destroyed the rest house and the written report was intimated by Memai Council of Mao to the then Japfüphiki Public Organization which is renamed now as Southern Angami Public Organization. During this relevant time of tension, the then Tenyimi Central Union (TCU) intervened and directed the defaulters (Songsong village) to reconstruct the rest house of the Southern Angamis which read as ‘the destroyed rest house should be re-constructed to its original shape by Songsong village within 20 (twenty) days with effect from 15th February 2001’. The destroyed rest house was re-constructed to its original shape by the Songsong village within the stipulated time and Southern Angami ownership of Kezol–tsa and Dzüko is undisturbed until tensions rose again in 2015.[3]
