Tensions have escalated in Manipur’s Imphal after three bodies were discovered near a river in Jiribam district, linked to ongoing ethnic clashes between the Meitei and Kuki-Zo communities. Security forces have been deployed to restore peace as protests erupted over the incident. These demonstrations reflect growing dissatisfaction with the government’s handling of the ethnic violence, which has caused widespread displacement since June.
The victims were part of a group reported missing after recent violence in Borobekra, where clashes left several dead. Community leaders are demanding accountability and immediate measures to curb escalating violence. Candlelight vigils and marches have been organized, urging authorities to expedite investigations and protect vulnerable populations in the region.
