The news report by @republic raises several red flags, highlighting the bias and potentially misleading nature of the channel’s coverage. Here’s a more structured critique:
1. Unverified Claims on Arms Consignment: The reporter claims intelligence sources informed him about a large consignment of arms arriving in Moreh from Myanmar. However, if such intelligence exists, why has there been no confiscation or recovery of the arms? Typically, when authorities have such information, they act swiftly. The absence of any official seizure raises doubts about the veracity of these claims.
2. Lack of Evidence: Despite the apparent knowledge of a major arms consignment, no tangible evidence has emerged. There hasn’t been a single report confirming a recovery, casting suspicion on the authenticity of the intelligence or whether this is merely speculative reporting.
3. Convenient Narrative Building: The decision to report such claims without concrete evidence seems to align with the agenda of Chief Minister Biren Singh and Republic's Arnab Goswami. Both have been vocal in attempting to create a link between the Kukis of Manipur and the Kukis in Myanmar. This report appears to further that narrative without providing any substantial proof, suggesting a biased attempt to malign the Kukis.
4. Suspicious Arrestsl: Intelligence inputs allegedly led to the arrest of an individual accused of conducting recce for arms smuggling. However, the person had no weapons, and language barriers might have played a role in miscommunication. Arrests based on circumstantial or flimsy evidence without any significant findings only weaken the credibility of the intelligence and the report.
In conclusion, Republic’s report appears to be part of a larger effort to vilify the Kuki community without backing up its claims with hard facts. It seems plausible that the channel is either misinformed or deliberately distorting facts to push a biased narrative.

@manipur_police why FIR is not filed against @republic tv & @ArnabGoswamiRTv for inciting fresh violence in #Manipur by relentlessly showing foreign videos as #Manipur footage of rockets and drones. Latest violence is the direct result of such deliberate fake news from Republic.
The problem within 700sq km Manipur doesn't entails for complete internet ban in outer Manipur too.
Enough of Meitei monopoly.
Hill people of so called Manipur please wake up. ✊✊✊
This explains precisely why we the hills fight for separate administration for fairness
“Why do we still have traitors like Khelendro and Moirang Tonjao in our midst?” Rajya Sabha MP wrt the leaked clips. Khelendro and Tonjao are traitors who helped Britishers capture the King and Tikendrajit. Proof of authenticity of the Tapes. @PMOIndia @HMOIndia

A radical Meitei journalist pressed Manipur security advisor Kuldiep Singh to admit the attack was carried put by the Kuki.
Despite knowing it was the VBIGs, K.Singh didn’t explicitly acknowledge it.
📍It is imp to note that IRB battalion is based in the heart of Meitei areas.
This dubmass media were fast to tag kuki militants without varifications, now that things points different why the hell they shy away from mentioning Arambai tengol, a meitei terrorist organisations???
