❤️ Powerful Speech by RK Echan Thoibi. What she speaks is the suffering and frustration of the Public. This happens when the political leadership fails miserably and people develop a sense of helplessness #SaveMeiteis
Better late than never❗️
🙏 We urge the political leadership to aside their political differences and come together to restore peace asap. They have the rest of their lives to score brownie points and political benefits.
Let's #SaveManipur first.

Have a clarity on the issue, its intersecting dimensions. There is, and should be, no doubt on the fact that Human Rights are paramount. However, these rights must be pursued within the concrete condition within which these rights are embedded and inextricably entangled in a web of socio-economic and political realities.
All rights activists must know that Police is a crucial institution to ensure ordered and lawful existence. Talk of withdrawing police from a particular area is not only ridiculous but also against basic premise of human rights itself, namely, amongst others, rule of law. You must seek accountability of the institution is very different from saying withdraw the police.
Simple fact is, military and para-military can not, are not meant to, deal with civil and criminal matters, such as registration and investigation of civil and criminal cases etc.
The suggestion that a territory with civilians must be handed over to the military and para-military by withdrawing the police is, to say the least, obnoxious!
