Imphal, Oct 3: Hundreds of people defied curfew orders and took out a mass silent protest rally on Tuesday seeking justice regarding ongoing communal violence in Manipur.

The protesters held festoons, banners, and placards which sought to restore peace and end the bloodshed between the non-indigenous and the indigenous communities in the state.

They demanded implementation of NRC in Manipur, resettlement of the inmates in their home towns/villages, no to separate administration, and complete stoppage of any crime against women and innocent children.

The government has imposed an indefinite curfew in the Khurai area of the Imphal East district in view of the prevailing situation.

Talking to media persons, Sana Mangang, a protester said that over 175 individuals have been killed in the communal conflict that erupted on May 3, 2023 between the Meiteis and Kukis.
