Shutdown in Manipur's Naga areas after ambush kills four civilians
A one-day shutdown was observed in Manipur's Naga areas to mourn four Naga civilians killed in an ambush allegedly carried out by Kuki rebels. The state's Chief Minister called for collective efforts to address the trust deficit between communities.
A shutdown was observed across Manipur's Naga areas on Friday to pay homage to four Naga civilians who were killed in an ambush on Thursday, allegedly by Kuki rebels. The United Naga Council (UNC), the state's apex Naga organisation, had called for a one-day 'Genna'—a period of strict prohibition, rest, and community worship—in all Naga areas.
AC Thotso, secretary of the UNC's Working Committee, said all Naga areas, including towns and district headquarters, remained shut. The mortal remains of the four victims were taken to Senapati for post-mortem examinations, and a condolence service was planned for Saturday before the last rites.
Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh on Friday called for sustained and collective efforts from all sections of society to overcome the prevailing trust deficit between different communities in the state.
