You may have tremendous contribution in sports and cultural life of the country or in defence services with three stars generals and decorated officers, including those who had commanded 'surgical' operations or sacrificed fighting Al-Qaeda in foreign soil...
Manipuri dance may be celebrated as one of the classical dances of this country or UNESCO may honoured your music, you may have globally known cultural icons like Ratan Thiyam and Aribam Shyam or numerous sports heroes who have made the tri colour fly with pride in numerous international arenas...to think of it, even legendary music composer S.D. Burman who was born of a Meitei woman...this is besides medical specialists in leading hospitals and other professionals in the country...
But what all these contributions mean to the Indian State ultimately?
Letting you burn for four months...and nurturing people who seek to destroy the state, politically and socially?

Chandrayaan-3 Mission:
All set to initiate the Automatic Landing Sequence (ALS).
Awaiting the arrival of Lander Module (LM) at the designated point, around 17:44 Hrs. IST.
Upon receiving the ALS command, the LM activates the throttleable engines for powered descent.
The mission operations team will keep confirming the sequential execution of commands.
The live telecast of operations at MOX begins at 17:20 Hrs. IST
I came across a noteworthy Facebook post—a true gem. In it, a grandfather shares that his ancestors conveyed that Meiteis are indeed our brothers. While we're aware of this, the profound division resulting from a succession of divisions sown between these two communities through the British "divide and rule" policy, later extended by the Indian government through the MLR&LR act and ST schedule, has brought us to our current state. If we all acknowledge these facts, genuine brotherhood can naturally emerge. I encourage you to listen closely to the lyrics of the songs, word by word. 🙏🏻

📢📢📢📢‼️‼️The diverse non-Meitei groups residing in the cosmopolitan town of Moreh are facing severe and relentless extortion and threats from the Kuki militant groups.
Approximately two months ago, these Kuki militants demanded a sum of 600,000 rupees from the various communities such as Biharis, Bengalis, Gorkhas, etc. The community members somehow managed to gather 300,000 rupees and sent it to the militants.
Now, after the passage of two months, the Kuki militants have once again summoned a meeting with the leaders of all these communities at approximately 8 a.m., seeking the remaining amount.
Today, at around 10 a.m., they returned and demanded the outstanding 300,000 rupees. They resorted to brandishing firearms and physically assaulting individuals as well.
Given the current dire economic circumstances faced by these communities, it is utterly impossible for them to fulfill this demand.

To all those shouting, State Police has taken over a Masjid and making it a bunker. See the video with your eyes wide open.
See the Muslim Man running with a ladder to help the police climb and scope the area to take positions.
𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠! 𝐒𝐚𝐝.
They weave a story that State Police is helping the Meitei militant to attack the INNOCENT Kuki.
Now when this video came online, a new narrative is created.
“𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙋𝙤𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙚 𝙤𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙤𝙣 𝙈𝙚𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙞 𝙈𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙨.”
“𝙈𝙚𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙞 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙢𝙖𝙨𝙟𝙞𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙗𝙪𝙣𝙠𝙚𝙧!”
and blah blah.
Sigh! Lies after lies to cover up lies.
Truth be told, 𝐊𝐔𝐊𝐈 𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐎 𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐓 are attacking Meitei Hindu, Meitei Christian and Meitei Pangal (Muslim). Not letting Meitei farmers to farm, to return home, not letting people to pray or offer namaz, and continuing their atrocities.
Let’s hear from all those parachute journalists too. Feel free to tag them.
Bring it on!

On this National Handloom Day, let's commemorate the opulent cultural heritage of Manipur and offer tribute to the adept artisans, Manipuri Imas, who persistently uphold this ageless craftsmanship.
Manipur enjoys a distinct place amongst the Handloom zones in India. Handloom industry is the largest cottage industry in the State. This industry has been flourishing since time immemorial. One of the special features of the industry is that women are the only weavers.
It is believed that Chitnu Tamitnu, a goddess, discovered the cotton and she also produced the yarn. When the threads are ready for weaving she arranged the required equipments and constructed the ‘Sinnaishang’ (work shed). It is also beieved that the goddess Panthoibee once saw a spider producing fine threads and making cowebs and from it she found the idea of weaving and thus started weaving.
The National Handloom Census, 1995-96 reported that Manipur has 4.62 lakh handloom workers (4.25 lakh weavers, 0.29 preparatory, 7,488 dyers & hired which is 2nd position among the top States of the country, 2.81 lakh looms which is 4th position among top States, consuming 12.196 lakh Kg. of yarn per month which is 7th position among top States and produced 96.07 lakh meters of handloom fabrics which is also 7th among top States of the country.

The orchestrated violence inagurated on 3rd May, 2023 at Torbung completes three months today (3rd August, 2023) with an attempt to have a mass burial of 'Kukis' who were killed in the violence.
Is it just a coincidence or a political message that the planned burial too is at Torbung and the date is 3rd August, 2023?
Whatever, Torbung shall unpack the myth of so-called "hill-valley" (divide) and reality of "land grabbing"...
All those with eyes and brain, check whether Torbung is 'hill' or 'valley'? And for some, that might help to cure their jaundiced views!

See the recent decline in forest areas and tree cover in Manipur. This is not joke.
The ramifications of destroying forests affect the entire populace, regardless of specific communities.

"Centre has accepted the removal of the clause for safeguarding the integrity of Manipur in the SoO" - media reports!
When Manipur assembly passed, Protection of Manipur People Bill, 2015 no one in Manipur except, Chin-Kuki protested, they violently attacked Churachandpur police station leading to police firing killing 9. Why? Because the bill took 1951 as the base year. About 70% of the present Chin-kuki population are immigrants and their descendants who migrated after 1951 from Myanmar. They feared losing their citizenship.
In another incident on 18th August 2015, Chin-Kuki attacked & vandalised almost all Meetei shops in border town MOREH where they were the majority to bully Meetei not to ask for ILP which could check illegal migration from Myanmar. However, Meetei didn't retaliate thinking they would come to their senses even when the government compensated.
On April 27, 2023 Chin-kuki set on fire open Gym facility at Churachandpur exploding their angst against govt's actions - fight drugs, forest encroachment, poppy plantation, etc. a Guwahati based media had shown live the violence, sort of promoting - revolting agnst state's injustice!
May 3, 2023 on pretext of protesting agnst Meetei's ST demand n taking advantage of Meetei's nonviolent culture of Vaishnavism, Chin-kuki without any provocation fm Meetei came n attacked nearby Meetei villages with AK rifles, looted n torched Meetei houses for 2-3 hrs without any intervention fm Assam Rifles or Manipur police.
Ferocity of Chin-kuki shocked and deeply hurt Meetei, who ultimately had to defend themselves!
At night all Meetei homes in Churachandpur having abt 9000 Meetei were destroyed n many Meetei women fall prey to the ferocious Chin-kukis as Assam Rifles could not do anything because of SoO.
That's how Manipur violence began.
Chin-kuki's aims to carve out homeland: ZALENGAM conceptualized in the 1980s - according to documents! Zalengam is a well planned action calendar. As one leader said, "even if not May 3, we would have a war with the Meetei, only looking for a trigger point". They never speak for peace but only Zalengam/Separate administration.
They provoke Meetei firing at them at their convenience because SoO gives them immunity from Indian army/Assam rifles. Meetei being at the receiving end - about 6000 Meetei at MOREH, about 3000 at peripheral - striking range of Chin-kuki's snippers and 2-inch mortars - a no man's land!
Affected Chin-kuki, especially from the valley area couldn't be more than 13,000 but affected Meetei from Churachandpur, Tengnoupal, Chandel, Kangpokpi district could be no less than 18,000.
We don't know the number of casualties on both sides but one Chin-kuki leader put 250, including 200+ at Khamenlok for Meetei n Chin-kuki's casualty are less. Fact is Chin-kuki's aim is to keep trouble brewing to mount maximum pressure on the government of India. Question is - how could in a democratic country a group of people who kill fellow men to achieve their ZALENGAM be given respect and honour n be rewarded? Instead they should be contained, disarmed n brought to justice.
WMC urge Hon'ble PM Shri Modiji @narendramodi to abrogate the SoO Agreement with Chin-kuki militants. This can only bring normalcy.
