MHA orders withdrawal of 50 companies of Central forces from Manipur

The Hindu  

The Union Ministry of Home Affairs has ordered the withdrawal of around 5,000 Central Armed Police Forces personnel from Manipur. A senior government official said that the MHA had ordered the pulling out of 50 companies of CAPFs, mainly drawn from the Central Reserve Police Force and the Border Security Force, from the violence-hit State. Ethnic violence erupted in the State on May 3, 2023, which was followed by large number of killings, arson, looting of police armouries, and displacement of thousands of people. After violence erupted in Manipur, around 36,000 personnel from the Indian Army and the CAPFs were deployed in the State, with a sizeable presence in the “buffer zones” between the Valley areas dominated by the Meitei people, and the hill districts, where the Kuki-Zo people live.
