Digital Desk: Following
reports of clashes in various parts of Manipur in connection with a tribal
groups' mass rally, the Indian Army and the Assam Rifles conducted a flag march
in the affected areas on Wednesday.
According to an Indian Army statement,
military and paramilitary soldiers were deployed in the area bordering Bishnupur
and Churachandpur districts shortly after the skirmishes erupted. The Army
stated that efforts are being undertaken to evacuate impacted people and
restore law and order.
"Army/AR columns with state police intervened in the night
to control the situation." By the morning, the fighting had been stopped.
Around 4000 villagers were given shelter in Army/AR COBs and state government
premises in various locations. Flag marches are being held to keep the
situation under control, according to the statement.
This comes after the Manipur government imposed a curfew in most
districts and halted mobile internet access throughout the state for five days
beginning Tuesday, following a violent protest coordinated by the All Tribal
Students' Union Manipur (ATSUM). Following an
April 19 Manipur High Court directive, the tribal group was protesting the
demand for inclusion of the state's Meitei community in the Scheduled Tribe
(ST) category. The development has reignited a historic ethnic schism in the
state between the Meitei population and the hill tribes.
