Manipur: 9 Naga MLAs write to home minister Shah, seek action against Kuki-Zo leaders

Nine Naga Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) in Manipur, including Deputy Chief Minister Losii Dikho, have written to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, requesting immediate action against Kuki-Zo leaders over their alleged involvement in the killings of Naga civilians. The letter specifically targets Deputy Chief Minister Nemcha Kipgen, a member of the Kuki-Zo community, and calls for the arrest of her husband, Thangnoi Kipgen, a leader of an insurgent group under a Suspension of Operations (SoO) agreement with the central government. The MLAs argue that Kipgen's office is colluding with the Kuki militants, hindering the peace process and causing unrest in the region. They demand the cancellation of the SoO agreement with Kuki groups due to ongoing violence and civilian casualties. The letter highlights recent ethnic clashes between Nagas and Kukis, which have escalated tensions in Manipur.
