In a significant escalation, a tribal body in Manipur has imposed an economic blockade in Kuki-Zo areas, alleging police brutality during recent clashes. The blockade has disrupted transportation and essential supply chains, increasing pressure on the state government to address the community’s grievances.
The tribal leaders demand accountability and justice for the alleged mistreatment. Authorities are engaging in discussions to negotiate a resolution while urging protestors to lift the blockade to minimize public inconvenience.
