Kanglei Yawol Kanna Lup (KYKL), meaning "the Organisation to save the revolutionary movement in Manipur" is a Meitei insurgent group formed in January 1994 following merger of the Oken faction of the United National Liberation Front (UNLF), the Meiraba faction of People's Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (PREPAK) and the Ibo Pishak faction of the Kangleipak Communist Party (KCP).

The outfit suffered a major setback after its inception when two of its top leaders — chairman Namoijam Oken and commander-in-chief N Thouba Singh, were reportedly arrested. Earlier during 1995-96, a large number of its lower-ranking cadres either deserted the outfit or surrendered to the security forces. In 1996, the outfit split into — the KYKL(O), led by Oken and KYKL(T) led by Achou Toijamba. However, after five years of inter-group rivalry, the Oken and Toijamba factions decided to reunite in mid-February 2002. The move was prompted by the objective of unity among various insurgent outfits in the region.

The purported objective of KYKL is to 'rebuild' Manipuri society by clearing it of all vices like immoral activities, drug trade and corruption. The group stands for 'nationalism' of the entire Northeastern region to be based on the principle of "all for one and one for all".

Towards the end of 2001, the outfit launched 'Operation New Kangleipak' (ONK), an 'anti-corruption' campaign to 'clean up' the educational system in Manipur. While the outfit continues its activities under the ONK, it has also pledged open support to other militant groups who work against the narcotics trade, drug addiction, immoral activities and corruption in the society.

Following reunification in 2002, the outfit has formed an ad hoc central executive committee, with Achou Toijamba as chairman and Keisham Yaima as general secretary. It has also formed a 'military commission' known as Meeyamgi Yawol Lanmee (MYL), which is jointly headed by Oken and Toijam Ibochou. Keirungba Khuman is the deputy finance secretary' in whose name extortion notes to the general public are reportedly issued. The outfit primarily operates in the four valley districts of Imphal East, Bishenpur, Thoubal and Imphal West in Manipur.

KYKL has close linkages with the National Socialist Council of Nagalim - Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM). It also has links with the Zomi Revolutionary Army (ZRA) the Achik National Volunteer Council (ANVC). Reports have also indicated that KYKL maintains links with the Khaplang faction of the NSCN (NSCN-K) with the latter providing training and shelter to KYKL cadres at its bases in Myanmar.
