@_shiva_shambo @Class92Giggs @ambedkariteIND You said being tortured for demanding ST? If being tortured then, why is us demanding a seperate administration a threat for the meitei community, why, when the "torturer" begs to leave, they are asked to stay. Shouldn't they be glad that we take what's ours and leave what's not
We are neither illegal immigrants nor terrorists; we are tribals from the hills, and we deserve our land rights.

As the selective destruction of targetted ethnic groups continues, tribal lives have paid the price for power in Manipur. In video: Marred individuals are seen left as show pieces and a reminder by the Meitei people on what they can do to the hill tribes.

Many tribals from the hill districts are succumbed by the Meiteis in the streets on their way to sought shelter. No military forces to protect them while the meiteis in tribal areas are protected by the military forces @ndtv#ManipurBurning#ManipurOnFire#BirenStepDown
#manipurisburning very disheartened to hear the happenings in Manipur right now. Tribal Houses are attacked and burnt down. Churches are burnt down, Private properties burnt down, Tear gas and open fires? just for fighting our rights??
@ManipurThouna@PMOIndia Forest. Are we animals? Are we monkeys to you? To call our lands such! And that was when the meeteis burnt the anglo kuki war gate😃 and then you're trying to pin the blame on us for retaliating? That was their response to our peaceful rally. We had our answer. We had to fight.
@ManipurThouna@PMOIndia If you looked into the whole situation for even a second, you'd see that we assembled for a peaceful rally in hope that the GOVERNMENT, not the poeple, not the meetei, not any other tribe/ community, may grant us our wish and our rights in our lands which they named a "reserved..
@maibam_grace Do look more into the situation, yes, there are instances where "tribals" will be at fault, i mean, what do you expect!? But why do you think we did what we did?
मणिपुर से आ रही तस्वीरें चिंतनीय हैं। इस पहाड़ी राज्य में सैकड़ों- हजारों वर्षों से बसे आदिवासियों के घरों को तोड़ा जा रहा है, गाँवों को उजाड़ा जा रहा है। आखिर उनका अपराध क्या है?
वहाँ के मेतई समुदाय को अनुसूचित जनजाति में शामिल करने के विरोध में आदिवासियों द्वारा कल एक बड़ी रैली हुई थी, जिसके बाद उनके घरों को जलाया जा रहा है और उनके साथ हिंसा की जा रही है।
माननीय @narendramodi जी, मणिपुर में आपकी पार्टी की सरकार है। कृपया "राज धर्म" का पालन कीजिए।
महामहिम राष्ट्रपति महोदया, इन आदिवासियों को आपका साथ चाहिए। कृपया हस्तक्षेप कीजिए। @rashtrapatibhvn
