Manipur Chief Minister urges dialogue, offers jobs to Tronglaobi parents
Manipur's Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh is pushing for real conversations to calm ongoing tensions in the state.
He met with local leaders, stressing that only dialogue can bring lasting peace, and encouraged everyone, including civil groups, to get involved.
As a gesture of support, the government will offer state jobs to parents who lost children in the Tronglaobi tragedy.
Unrest hits daily wage earners, students
Singh pointed out how the unrest is hurting daily wage earners and disrupting students' education: "The present unrest has brought hardships to daily wage earners and disrupted the academic environment of the children in the state."
The government says the Indian Government is committed to ending terrorism by 2029, with national investigators now looking into the Tronglaobi incident.
Meanwhile, community groups like COCOMI are raising questions but have skipped official talks so far, yet efforts continue to help displaced families return home and restore stability together.
