In Manipur, India, normal life has been disrupted due to ongoing protests and shutdowns following two tragic militant attacks. On April 7, a bomb attack in Tronglaobi, Bishnupur district, killed a 5-year-old boy and his 6-month-old sister, injuring their mother. This incident sparked protests that escalated after a retired Army man was killed in an ambush by suspected Kuki militants on April 18 near Litan village. Clashes erupted between security forces and protestors during a torch rally in Imphal's Thangmeiband region, resulting in injuries to six individuals, including three personnel from the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF). In response to the violence, the government imposed a three-day internet suspension, later lifting some restrictions. Civil bodies, including the Meira Paibis, have called for a five-day total shutdown, leading to the closure of marketplaces, educational institutions, and public transport in the valley districts. Protests demanding justice for the victims continue, with activists pledging to maintain pressure until accountability is achieved.
