SHARE:

Manipur violence: The situation in Manipur remains tense. 54 people have died so far during the ongoing protest by tribals against the court order on Scheduled Tribe status. Over 1,100 people from Manipur’s Jiribam district and adjoining areas have taken shelter in Assam’s Cachar district following violence in the neighboring state, officials said on Saturday.

Manipur violence: People leaving for Assam

Most of the migrants are from the Kuki community. Their houses in Manipur have been destroyed by those groups. L Mungpu, a 43-year-old Jiribam resident, said, “It was around 10 pm on Thursday when we heard screams in our area and it took us a few minutes to realize that we were under attack. The miscreants were pelting stones at us, threatening us and said this is their last fight.”

A CRPF CoBRA commando, who was on leave in Manipur’s Churachandpur district, was shot dead by armed assailants in his village on Friday, officials told PTI. The Regional Institute of Medical Sciences at Lamphel in Imphal West district has reported 23 deaths, the official said.
