The Delhi police have repeatedly obliged the BJP; that we've all seen. But asking for audio/video evidence of the sexual harassment suffered is when the investigation stops being ludicrous and becomes openly partisan.

Kudos to for pointing out this fact. We had shared this story earlier on our account. The calling of Kukis as "militants" and Meiteis as "miscreants" should also be stopped.

Thread 1:
The fact that many were armed with weapons, mostly “looted” from armouries in Imphal, was making it difficult to quell violence. “In most cases, the arms have not been looted, but rather handed over,” said an officer.

In a state where armed underground groups have a deep intertwined history (in hills and valley), this fresh poisoned injection has horrible consequences. Who gains politically in the hills, valley and political class from the poisoned polity? All people will pay the price.

Amit Shah's repeated assertion that Centre's efforts in Manipur would be "unbiased" on Thursday could be read as a direct commentary on N Biren Singh govt. It was this backdrop that forced Shah to spend 4 days in Manipur. I report

Contrary to claims of the CM security officials tell that the 40 militants supposedly killed by security officials in the last few days were not all Kuki. They also say that in some instances weapons practically handed over by security agencies. Great report.

A clearer depiction of happenings in #Manipur.
Keeps showing the complicity of state govt and the concerted efforts of armed groups to make the pot boil.

This is the most precise report on the conflict situation in Manipur filed by and not any of the reporters from or based out of the region.
Says so much about the allegiances that we (feel we) owe to our communities. Journalists in this region need to do better.

Deeply disturbing to see such a threatening tweet from a retired police officer. This kind of behaviour is unacceptable. It tarnishes the reputation of the entire police force.
