Civil society groups in Manipur have issued a 24-hour ultimatum to the state government, demanding decisive action against armed militant groups. Manipur witnessed unrest again Saturday evening after a mob attempted to breach the residence of Chief Minister N Biren Singh.
Security forces deployed tear gas to disperse the mob, which had gathered in anger following the discovery of six missing bodies in Jiribam district. Among the dead were an infant and two women, intensifying public outrage over the government's alleged inaction and lack of communication.
The bodies, including that of an eight-month-old child, were recovered from the Barak River in Jiribam. These individuals had been missing since Monday, following violent clashes where 10 armed Kuki men were killed in a gunfight with security forces.
