What is happening in Manipur?

Since May 3, Meitei and Kuki residents of communities in Manipur have reportedly committed horrendous acts of violence, including reported rapes, burnings, and decapitations. This awful violence is reportedly being prompted by the state government’s efforts to offer benefits and jobs formerly only available to Kukis to Meiteis. At least 150 people have died in violence that is happening between the Meitei and Kuki ethnic groups that have gripped the Myanmar-bordering state of Manipur in north-eastern India.

Following a Kuki-led tribal solidarity march in ten of the state’s sixteen districts, violence erupted in Churachandpur, a town just south of the state capital Imphal, on May 3. Clashes extended throughout Manipur as the Meitei organized counterprotests and blockades. Women were part of some of the mobs. They occasionally stopped soldiers from intervening in order to protect Meitei attackers.

Over 12,000 people have fled into the neighboring Mizoram state, while thousands have been hurt and more than 60,000 people have been displaced as a result of the violence. Numerous homes, churches, and cars have been vandalized, and thousands of firearms have been taken from government arsenals. Attacks such as arson and others go on unabated.

Numerous serious incidents of sexual abuse against Kuki women by Meitei men, militias, and militants provide as proof that sexual violence has been used as a weapon in the ethnic conflict.

In total, the violence over the past three months has resulted in at least 150 fatalities and at least 60,000 displaced individuals. According to some reports, there were more than 180 fatalities.
