Manipur Crisis | Point of Reservation Not Just About Access to Land but to Ensure Equal Representation: Greeshma Kuthar

The Hindu  

Published : Dec 09, 2024 18:29 IST - 42 MINS READ For 19 months, violence has engulfed Manipur, widely portrayed as an ethnic conflict between the majority Meitei community and the Kuki-Zo tribes. As violence spreads to new districts like Jiribam and weapons continue to circulate, Kuthar, in this insightful webinar for Frontline, examines the complex factors that determine the conflict: government policy, security forces, armed groups, and civilian populations that have led to hundreds of deaths, the displacement of over 70,000 people, and growing militarisation among Manipur’s youth. Even in June, when I started reporting on Jiribam, editors would say, “It’s okay, it’s just a couple of killings, it’s just arson that’s been happening in Manipur all the time.” The fact that those were the responses I got shows that the responsibility for Jiribam becoming what it has isn’t just on State agencies and the Central government—who by design want this to continue for whatever reasons—but also on journalists who don’t want to put the focus on Manipur the way it needs to be. I’ve had interactions with people who said that before the war started, Naga, Kuki, and Meitei insurgent groups on the Myanmar side would all procure weapons similarly. But coming to the role of AFSPA—like I’ve already told you—there are certain parts in the hill districts where the Central forces are in control, and in the valley it’s the Manipur police.
