    Manipur Violence


    So far, more than 100 individuals have died in ethnic conflict in the northeastern state between Meitei and Kuki groups.


    Clashes erupted on May 3 after a 'Tribal Solidarity March' was held in the hill districts to protest the Meitei community's demand for Scheduled Tribe (ST) status.


    Meiteis account for about 53 percent of Manipur's population and dwell primarily in the Imphal Valley. Another 40% of the population is comprised of the Naga and Kuki tribes, who live in the hill districts.
