Manipur Violence

"We all know that Manipur has been a very complex state, even before BJP came to power", says Annamalai.

A video that surfaced showing two women being paraded naked by mob prompted Swati Maliwal to write to the DGP of Manipur.

The last 24 hours have seen continued tension and unpredictability in the State. Numerous locations witnessed peaceful protests, dharnas, and peace rallies.

The police reported that between 800 and 1,000 people invaded B. Phainom village with high-tech weapons, causing significant damage and looting.

Successive governments have ignored the state and have never really tried to resolve the conflict in Manipur, says Iron Lady of Manipur.

Following this incident and the subsequent skirmishes, a number of Bollywood A-listers, including Sonu Sood, Kiara Advani, Renuka Shahane, and Akshay Kumar, have denounced the violence that took place in the state.

The Monsoon Session Of Parliament will go on for 23 days which will comprise 17 sittings. It is to end on the 11th of August. Speaker Om Birla asked MPs to engage in meaningful conversation in the Lok Sabha.

Opposition parties have accused the government of failing to contain the violence.

The violence in Manipur between the Hindu Meiteis and the tribal Kuki, who are Christians, erupted after a rally by the All Tribal Students Union of Manipur (ATSUM) on May 3.

As the violence continues in Manipur, 118 checkpoints have been set up and 326 individuals have been detained throughout the state.
