Hope amidst the riots

 Where the word peace is now hated,

Where once neighbours are now the hated,

The streams of reason has dried up

Minds are in chains and usurped 

Where the voices of good people drowns,e

the mindless mobs runs the towns


Where lips speaks of peace while hearts murder

Justice cries alone in a  corner

In such an accursed land, children cries;

for many have become orphans as fathers dies

The grasslands have turned into deserts

Once happy Homes are now deserted


The once bustling streets are now empty

Devoid of laughter, mirth and merry

Where have all the leaders and saints gone

When you are most needed at home

Cries of "where is home?" reverberates

 through these forsaken land of tears


There I heard a voice, calling out

That there is still hope amidst the riots

On bended kness, I prayed;

for an end to being played

This nightmare will also pass;

 for time heals all at last.

They could no longer hide behind the facade of a harmless socio-cultural organisations after their "Black Shirt" storm troopers razed Kuki houses, raped and killed their women, brutally assaulted and murdered in cold blood, hounded Kuki-Zo tribals out from Imphal and adjoining areas close to the Imphal valley. The Investigative team could reach a reasonable, conclusive point of view based  on the witness accounts of victims who escaped from the clutches of these radical organisations, th...

Meiteis are not Indigenous to Manipur

 *Meiteis are not Indigenous People of Manipur* 👉Lt Col Laishram Lokendra Singh(Retd). Except for the die-hard few Meiteis who have been strongly conditioned to believe that they are descendents of Arjuna of Mahabharata fame and they are therefore Mayang Aryans, the overwhelming majority Meiteis do believe that they are Yelhoumee – the indigenous people of Manipur; that their forefathers were the original first settlers of this part of the world and they have maintained historical continuity in living in this land. No logic can therefore say that they are not Yelhoumee/ Indigenous People of Manipur. Scientifically also it has been determined that the so called valley area of Manipur was once upon a time under water. Due to regular siltation during rains from the surrounding hills over a period of time, water dried up and the land became congenial for human habitation. People from the hills came down and settled in the valley. Those early settlers may have been called by different ...

The three victims belong to a group of five persons belonging to the minority Kuki tribes who were working as contract labourers in Kawa Naorem Leikai in Imphal. Fearing for their lives, they ran for refuge in their contractor’s residence. Unfortunately, the irate mob belonging to the majoritarian Meitei community found out about their whereabouts. As the mob began to gather in front of the house, the contractor sensing danger, asked them to escape through the back door for their safety as he would not be able to protect them from the angry ...
