Digital Desk: The horrific attack on tribal women in Manipur on May 4 was denounced at a large protest rally organised on Tuesday at Haflong in Assam's Dima Hasao.
Diverse populations from the area took part in the rally, which was organised by the Dima Hasao Joint Women's Organisation. The protesters marched along the main thoroughfares, beginning at Lalfield and continuing to Synod Rotary and Council Rotary before gathering in front of the DC office.
A memorandum was handed to President Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the protest through the DC, along with copies given to the Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and the DC.

The incident brought to light the widespread existential anxiety that women in Manipur and the country experience as a result of the long-running dispute. The group claimed that even when such incidents are recorded, authorities infrequently take proper action against the culprits.
