In a separate but related development, representatives of the Churachandpur Meitei United Committee also met with Governor Bhalla on the same day, submitting a memorandum that highlighted the dire situation of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from Churachandpur district.
It may be mentioned here that after a brief lull violence erupted in parts of Manipur after Home Minister Amit Shah directed administration to normalise road functioning in the state.
Manipur has been grappling with communal violence and ethnic tensions since May 2023, when clashes erupted between the Meitei and Kuki communities.
The violence led to mass displacement, with thousands seeking refuge in relief camps. The conflict stemmed from a complex mix of ethnic identity, land rights, and political representation, plunging the state into a humanitarian crisis.
