The ongoing violence in Manipur for the past year and a half has brought the state to the brink of destruction. Particularly, the minority Kuki tribe has suffered the most in terms of loss of life and property. It is deeply saddening to see that in a country that promotes the slogan "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas" (Together for Everyone, Development for Everyone), the existence of a tribe is under threat. The state and central governments have yet to take any concrete steps to stop the atrocities against the Kuki community. The inaction of the BJP government in Manipur and the Chief Minister clearly reflects their inability to control this serious situation. The government appears to be merely a spectator, allowing the violence to escalate.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the central government were expected to uphold the rights of all citizens according to the Constitution. However, their silence and inaction in this matter send a message that the government is not committed to the existence of this community. This is not only against the Indian Constitution and democratic values but also a serious blow to the country's cultural and social unity.
We appeal to His Excellency the President to take immediate steps to end this violence. A strong directive should be issued to the central and state governments to protect the lives and rights of the Kuki tribe. The destruction of any tribe or community in this country is unacceptable.

In the realm of Journalism, where truth and objectivity reign supreme, ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐'๐ (@ramindesai) commentary on the #Kuki-Meitei conflict, made on ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐'๐ฌ "๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐๐๐ญ๐ ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฐ", stands as a jarring anomaly - a stark exemplar of irresponsible reporting that shatters the fragile bridge of trust between words and reality. Like a fractured lens, her biased narrative distorts the complex landscape of this longstanding conflict, casting a shadow of misinformation that obscures the painful truths of a community torn apart.
๐๐๐ฆ๐ข๐ง ๐๐๐ฌ๐๐ข'๐ฌ obsessive focus on alleged #Kuki Foreign ties serves as a diversionary tactic, deflecting scrutiny from the State Government's egregious inaction and the #Meitei Extremist Groups' heinous violence. By peddling this narrative, Desai inadvertently legitimizes #Meitei aggression, fostering a false moral equivalence between perpetrators and victims, and obscuring the power dynamics at play.
The glaring omission of acknowledging the extensively documented atrocities inflicted upon the #Kuki people, including forced displacement, ravaging and burning of homes, sexual violence, r@pe, brutal murder, beheadings, mutilations, and incinerations, is a deplorable and inexcusable oversight. ๐๐๐ฌ๐๐ข'๐ฌ conspicuous silence on these heinous crimes constitutes a tacit endorsement of the #Meitei Extremist ideology, which seeks to systematically erase the #Kuki identity, culture, and existence through a campaign of terror, violence, and genocide.
Desai's uncritical reliance on #Meitei-dominated Media Outlets and unverified claims compromises her journalistic integrity, magnifying biased narratives and disseminating misinformation that exacerbates tensions and entrenches violence. Her closed-minded approach is starkly evident in her glaring lack of engagement with diverse perspectives, factual evidence, and expert insights. By sycophantically and selectively cherry-picking information and neglecting contradictory views, she oversimplifies complex issues into misleading soundbites. This reductionism distorts reality, stifles constructive dialogue, polarizes opinions, and hinders the pursuit of Truth.
๐๐๐ฌ๐๐ข'๐ฌ failure to consider alternative viewpoints and factual information undermines the foundation of informed discourse. By shutting out dissenting voices and inconvenient facts, she creates an echo chamber reinforcing her preconceived notions, rather than challenging them. The consequences of this closed-mindedness are far-reaching, eroding trust in Journalism and Media, fueling misinformation and confusion, polarizing communities and exacerbating tensions.
By embracing a more inclusive, nuanced, and evidence-based approach, Desai can reclaim her role as a facilitator of informed discourse, rather than a purveyor of simplistic and misleading narratives. Desai's conspicuous failure to unequivocally condemn #Meitei Extremism constitutes a stark abdication of her responsibility as a public figure, effectively emboldening their violent ideology and jeopardizing the safety and well-being of the #Kuki people.
๐๐๐ฆ๐ข๐ง ๐๐๐ฌ๐๐ข'๐ฌ commentary constitutes an egregious betrayal of journalistic principles, tainted by entrenched biases, glaring inaccuracies, and a shocking indifference to human anguish. Her reprehensible actions necessitate immediate retraction, sincere self-reflection, and a concerted effort to cultivate nuanced understanding, in order to mitigate the harm inflicted and restore credibility.

๐จMeitei radical students backed by AT have brazenly removed the Indian National Flag from the DC office, Thoubal early today & replaced it with their Salai Taret flag. This is a brazen challenge to India's sovereignty. The treasonous act will not be tolerated! #MHA#BJPGovt
Some media houses had the audacity to blame Kukis for drone attacks & rockets with images of Palestine. Whereas these are real images and clips. Watch them, verify them and then report them for the sake of your own dignified existence.
Also try to connect the dots between the infamous #ManipurTapes and the sudden recent escalation of violence in Manipur.

#MeiteiBombAttack
Reported that a combined force of 33 AR, CRPF and State Force led by CRPF DIG (Op) Premjit attacked the house of L. Hengjol (Kuki) village Chief under New Keithelmanbi Police Station, and indiscriminately fired more than 100 rounds of live bullets early this morning. Five innocent women were seriously injured.
This barbaric act of CF and State Force severely affected the hard-earned normal life in the area and brings back more chaos and fear among the common public.
Peace is a Far Cry...!

While the Nation curiously awaits for the Poll Result of one of the most polarising Election in India's history, our hearts suffers with inconsolable grief as we reminisce the most gruesome crime committed upon our ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ป ๐ฌ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ ๐ผ๐น๐ฑ ๐๐ผ๐ @ ๐ง๐ข๐ก๐ฆ๐๐ก๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐ ๐ข๐ง๐๐๐ฅ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐จ๐ก๐ง who were burnt to death inside an Ambulance a Year ago on this Day!
On this Day last Year, the most gruesome #HumanRights offence was carried out upon a #Kuki_Zo Family @ the innocent TONSING HANGSING, his MOM and his AUNT, at Iroisemba area in Imphal West, Manipur. The Seven-years-old Boy, his Mother and his Aunt were on their way to Hospital after a bullet splinter hit the Boy's head at the Assam Rifles Camp where they were staying.
It is to recall that Tonsing and his Family were staying at a Relief Camp at Assam Rifles base along with many other #Kuki_Zo displaced victims. The Camp was attacked by a group of armed #MeiteiMilitants during which Tonsing and his Mother received bullet injuries. Following the incident of the attack, a Senior Army Officer had sought for passage to the SP of Imphal West so that the boy and his Mother could be safely taken to the Hospital in Imphal. With the assurance of the SP Imphal West, Tonsing and his Mom and Aunt were transported through an escorted Ambulance.
In a heartbreaking manner, on reaching Iroisemba in Imphal West, the radicalized #Meiteis mob numbering to Thousands had attacked the Police escorted Ambulance. Tonsing, with his Mother and Aunt (who were both Meitei Christians) were in the Ambulance along with the driver and a Nurse when the mob had attacked them. The Driver and the Nurse were allowed to escape while the Police personnel fired in the air to make the mob retreat. Sources reported that members of the mob paid no heed to the repeated pleas of Tonsing's Mother and Aunt, and ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐บ๐ฏ๐๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ป ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐บ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฉ๐ฒ๐ต๐ถ๐ฐ๐น๐ฒ!โจ๏ธ
The #IndianExpress had reported that, โAll we could recover were some bones from inside the vehicle". Sources of Police and Army also said, "all that could be recovered from the Vehicle were some bones." To this gruesome act, an FIR was filed that night, including sections related to murder, but ๐ ๐ก๐ข ๐๐ฌ๐๐ฆ๐ have been placed till today on the #๐๐๐๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฒ of Tonsing and his Mom and Aunt. Later sources states that the Case has been handed over to the CBI, but no Justice has been served yet for Tonsing and his Mom and Aunt till this day!
As this Day marks a Year of their gruesome death, we appeal for their Justice with no more delay! While their story had surfaced the Internet, sending shockwaves across the Globe and prompting widespread condemnation for the ruthless violation of Human Rights upon them, we appeal for their due #Justice the same!๐
At this point, it is legitimate to reiterate the demand of the #Kuki_Zos for #SeparateAdministration within the ambit of the Union of India in order to ensure "justice" for the loss and tragedies of the minority #Kuki_Zo Tribals in #Manipur. The Centre must acknowledge de-facto separation of the #Kuki_Zos from the #Meiteis and subsequently grant their demand for a political #SeparateAdministration so that they could co-exist as peaceful neighbours with the barbaric #Meiteis!

#KukiHistory#MeiteiLiesXposed
Kukis mentioned in documents as old as 15th century BC
Now will the distorted history providers argue that kukis made up the things about Tripura copper plate or Manipur royal chronicle
Almost everyone who bark on social media knows nothing.
(II) Kangvai area, Lamka(previously Churachandpur)
https://t.co/aE5VjVMDWj around 2:30 p.m, Kuki-Zo residents of Kangvai area who had gone to participate in the rally found their homes vandalized and properties destroyed by Meitei locals in their absence. The venue for the rally i.e District Headquarter was about 15 km away from Kangvai.
2. Rally goers returning home, were stopped by Meitei men in hundreds claiming to be from the
Meitei Leepun. It was learned later that the radicalized Meitei youths called โArambai Tenggolโ were responsible and already present in Kangvai. They had come from other places like Moirang and Tronglaobi to intentionally cause havoc.
3. At around 3:00 p.m, Churachandpur Police was alerted of the situation.
4. At 4:00 p.m, Kangvai violence escalated. Youths from both communities were reportedly
pelting stones at each other.
5. At around 5-5:30 p.m, Kuki-Zo CSOs in order to control the situation by any means tried to
calm down the mobs from the Kuki-Zo side, however, the efforts went futile when Meitei mobs began burning Kuki-Zo homes in Kangvai which led to the situation escalating beyond control.
6. At 8:40 pm, curfew order under Section 144 of COCP 1973 was announced by the DC office of Kangvai, Tuibong and Churachandpur sub-divisions (Viz No.4/28/2020-DC/CCP). Internet suspension for 5 days was announced by the Commissioner office (Viz No.H-3607/4/2022-HD-

UNVEILING TRAGEDY of MANIPUR CONFLICT
CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER OF EVENTS IN THE MANIPUR ETHNIC POGROM, 2023
WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 2023
(I) Lamka, District- Churachandpur District, Police Station- Churachandpur Police Station.
1. At around 10:30a.m, in Lamka Public ground, Kuki-Zo tribals from across the district came
together in large numbers for the peace rally organized by the All Tribal Student Union Manipur(ATSUM) against the Meiteis demand for Scheduled Tribe Status. The rally ended at around 1-1:30p.m and the crowd had dispersed and returned to their respective homes and localities.
2. At around 2:00 p.m, Meitei miscreants burned the pillar of the Anglo-Kuki War Centenary Gate in Leisang Vaiphei village destroying some stone inscriptions which were prevented by few locals.
A Meitei man wearing the ISTV press vest was spotted around the area in a suspicious manner.
#ThisIsManipur #OnlyInManipur
TRIBAL PERSPECTIVE
A tribal scholar remarked: โWhile the Chief Ministerโs comments seem to resonate with the locals and also appeal universally to all Indian citizens, the story of ethnic cleansing in Manipur tells a different story and reveals a deep hypocrisy. The CMโs comments are rather paradoxical given that there is ample evidence to show that Meitei Police personnel were wantonly biased against the Kuki-Zo communities in the discharge of their duties during the violence that ensued from May 3.
Video evidence shows how Manipur Police Commandos were actively hand-in-glove with radical Meitei militias such Arambai Tenggol and Meitei Leepun when they went to attack Kuki-Zo settlements in the Imphal Valley. In Haokip Veng in Imphal, Meitei policemen were seen escorting armed Meitei rioters who were wreaking havoc on Kuki-Zo homes.
It must also be noted that it was the active involvement of Meitei policemen in B. Phainom village which allows two Kuki-Zo women to be paraded naked and eventually gangraped! Statements from the victims disclosed how they were ferried in a police gypsy which was deliberately stopped by the Meitei policemen in the midst of the violent crowd. The policemen quietly left the scene thereafter and surrendered the women at the mercy of the mob of Meitei men.
The successful looting of thousands of arms and ammunition from Police Training Centers and armories in the Imphal Valley point to two possibilities. Either the policemen were unable to discharge their duties in preventing the lootings or they are complicit by handing over the guns themselves. The absence of any concrete police investigation suggests the latter.
In the later stages of the conflict, when Kuki-Zo villages were attacked by Meitei militants, they were seen with police uniforms. This can only mean two things: Either the militants are sponsored by the police with guns, ammunitions and uniforms, or the police themselves are attacking the Kuki-Zo villages. Thus, this signals a clearly biased Meitei police force which Biren lauded to be neutral.
Thus, when CM Biren Singh made his comments that there shall be no biases in the police force, it is only pointing to his inadequacy in ensuring the same since the ethnic clashes. While the Kuki-Zo victims who were casualties of the ethnic cleansing are civilians too, the state police, which is essentially an armed wing of the Meiteis forgo their stately duties and sided with the Meitei majoritarian agenda.
Even after five months of the ethnic violence, the CM has yet to come to terms with what he has allowed to unfold. He has not gathered the dignity and courage to face the reality of the State-sponsored crisis. Until that happens, no amount of face-saving public comments will save the State.โ

It's alarming that amidst the G20 Summits buzz,a dark shadow looms over Manipur the persecution of minority Kuki-Zo Christians is real and horrifying. G20 leaders must demand answer from Biren Singh, Amit Shah,and modi #ManipurGenocide#SaveKuki -ZoTribals#G20StandWithKuki-Zo
As expected, Manipur, a small state in India rich in lodging FIRs, is the talk of every media outlet, whether in print or broadcast. Keeping aside individual contributions, the state government itself also brought fame to the state. The truth will prevail and will set us free.
@sapralu@PTI_News@NalinSKohli A gem who is lying in this video. He said the govt.double the sanctions but instead they lessen it. Don't just believe this politicians. Atleast try to do a fact check
