If a spokesperson of Manipur’s ‘Indigenous Tribal Leaders Forum’ (ITLF) is to be believed, this ‘disgusting’ incident viral on social media took place in Kangpokpi district on May 4. It is seen in the video that the men are continuously molesting the helpless women and they (women) are crying and pleading with them. The police have started investigating the matter and arrested one of the accused. The picture of the accused has come to the fore in which he is in police custody.
when did the violence start
Let us tell you that a ‘Tribal Solidarity March’ was organized in the hilly districts on May 3 to protest against the demand of the Meitei community for granting Scheduled Tribe (ST) status in the North East state of Manipur. After this, clashes started in the state. Since then, at least more than 150 people have lost their lives in the fire of violence in the state. The Meiteis constitute about 53 per cent of Manipur’s population and live mostly in the Imphal Valley. On the other hand, the tribal communities – Naga and Kuki people form 40 percent of the population and they mostly live in the hilly districts.
