Several Naga civil society organisations in Manipur have appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for direct intervention against alleged armed Kuki groups, accusing them of aiding “external aggression” and destabilising hill districts. The bodies claimed militant activities near the India-Myanmar border were threatening indigenous Naga communities and worsening ethnic tensions in the conflict-hit state. They demanded stricter enforcement against armed groups, better border security, and protection for civilians. The appeal also raised concerns over alleged bias and operational gaps in security measures. The developments highlight continuing unrest in Manipur, where ethnic violence and political instability have persisted since 2023. (PC: ANI)
