  2. Siege on Manipur: Hindu Nationalists' War for Ethnic Supremacy

    Across India, experiments to forge the 'Hindu national community' are predicated on the breakage of minoritised Muslims and Christians, and Adivasis and Dalits. What's happening in Manipur is part of a plan operationalised by the Hindu Right decades ago.

  5. Manipur was given to us by our forefathers, not by India: Meitei Leepun chief Pramot Singh

    Meitei Leepun chief Pramot Singh says that sacking CM Biren Singh will send a message to the Meiteis that Indian government has backed the Kukis to defeat Meiteis. The Meiteis will also protest against the President’s Rule as it’s a demand by the Kukis.

    In this blow-by-blow account, peace activist Harsh Mander describes his journey to Manipur, where he met Meitei and Kuki families broken by three months of ethnic violence, life inside the camps where hundreds live in despair, unsure if they will ever return to their scorched villages, and the “extreme culpability” of a seemingly partisan state that has done little to help the minority Christians who have been killed and uprooted in greater numbers.
