Manipur CM Biren Singh-key architect of the ethnic cleansing against Kukis-may come and go but his resignation changes nothing. It was his actions that forced Kukis out of the valley & made separation inevitable. The demand for separation remains unchanged. @HMOIndia @PMOIndia

#WATCH || As per the directives of KIM, a nationwide rally protesting the killing of three church leaders and the unlawful detention of Kuki hostages was held today in Ccpur. The protesters marched from two starting points and converged at the Wall of Remembrance site in Tuibong.

[India Today NE @IndiaTodayNE]

Thousands of Kuki-Zo people participated in a massive rally in Kangpokpi, Manipur, on Friday under the banner of Kuki Inpi Manipur (KIM), demanding justice for three slain church leaders, the immediate release of 14 Kuki-Zo hostages, and an expedited political solution to the ongoing crisis in the state.

The rally, attended by civil society leaders, church members, youth and elders, saw participants raise slogans calling for justice, security and equal protection under the Constitution.

A delegation later submitted a memorandum to Prime Minister Narendra Modi through the Deputy Commissioner, urging the Centre to ensure the safe release of the hostages, arrest those responsible for the killing of the church leaders, strengthen security in Kuki-Zo areas and accelerate political dialogue for a lasting solution.

KIM alleged continued government inaction and selective justice, warning that delays in addressing the issues could further deepen instability and mistrust.

The rally concluded peacefully, with participants reaffirming their commitment to democratic and constitutional means of seeking justice.

[KIM-Media and Public Relations @kimmnprls]

The burning of Kharam Vaiphei village is yet another tragic reminder of the complete failure of the State Government to ensure the safety and security of its citizens.

If such an incident could occur during a so-called search operation conducted by 2/8Gorkhas, the Government of Manipur and the SP of Kangpokpi District must answer serious questions. The Kuki community cannot continue to be subjected to selective enforcement, selective justice, and collective victimization while those responsible for violence and destruction remain unaccountable.

The Kuki people have already endured immense suffering, displacement, and loss. Instead of receiving justice and protection, they are repeatedly made to bear the burden of administrative failures and biased actions.

We strongly condemn this incident and hold the concerned authorities morally and administratively responsible for maintaining law and order. Justice cannot be selective. Peace cannot be built on discrimination. The continued targeting and neglect of the Kuki community will only deepen mistrust and further undermine confidence in the rule of law.

Families of 14 villagers allegedly abducted from Taphou Kuki Village in Manipur’s Kangpokpi district have intensified their sit-in protest, demanding immediate intervention from both the State and Central governments for the safe release of their relatives.

The protest, which has been continuing for several days, has drawn participation from hundreds of villagers, including women, elderly residents and children. Protesters stated that the agitation would continue until all the hostages are released safely.

Family members expressed concern over what they described as a lack of adequate response from the authorities regarding the incident, which took place on May 13 near the Senapati-Kangpokpi border along National Highway-2.

According to villagers, 25 residents of Taphou Kuki Village were allegedly abducted while returning home from work. They claimed the incident occurred in the presence of security personnel deployed in the area. While some individuals were later released, 14 people, including three students, are still reportedly being held captive.

Families stated that the prolonged absence of the missing villagers has caused severe emotional and financial hardship, as several of those still missing are the sole earning members of their households.

Speaking during the protest, family members appealed to the authorities to take urgent steps to ensure the safe and unconditional release of the remaining hostages. They also urged those responsible for the abduction to release the civilians on humanitarian grounds.

The protesters said they would continue their sit-in agitation until all the missing villagers return home safely.
