00:00 The tensions in the Manipur-Sura-Chandpur town, triggered by a clash with the security
00:08 forces following a protest at the mini-secretariat over a constable suspension, has eased as
00:14 the Indigenous Tribal Leaders Forum (ITLF) has lifted the total shutdown.
00:19 And so, the school market and the business resume but the Kuki student organisation KSO
00:24 has decided to continue the public curfew from 6pm to 6am. Despite this, the sporadic
00:30 gunfire persists from peripheral villages.
00:33 The protest erupted when a mob stormed the mini-secretariat to denounce constable C.M.
00:37 Lal Paul's suspension, prompted by a viral video showcasing him with armed individuals.
00:44 Reports even emerged of property damage and arson around the mini-secretariat area, including
00:48 the Deputy Commissioner's official residence, torched by the mob at around 1am on Friday.
00:54 The ITLF demanded the removal of District SP Shivanan Surve and DCS Dharun Kumar, urging
01:01 the replacement with officers, preferably from the Kuki Zoo community.
01:05 Warning of further action if C.M. Lal Paul's suspension wasn't revoked, the ITLF threatened
01:10 to close all the government offices, holding the DC and SP accountable for any ensuing
01:15 incidents.
01:16 The ITLF's call for a total shutdown on Friday paralysed Chura-Chandpur with deserted
01:21 streets and markets.
01:24 Now Manipur CM N.B.Rin Singh has announced on Saturday the establishment of two separate
01:28 magisterial inquiries to investigate the recent incident. One inquiry will focus on the violence
01:34 in Chura-Chandpur while another will delve into the armed looting episode in Chingarel
01:38 and Pangai, both situated in the Imphal East District.
01:43 Speaking at a press conference in Imphal, Singh emphasised the government's obligation
01:46 to uphold law and order and safeguard public property and lives. Although he refrained
01:51 from revealing the names, the CM yet mentioned plans to file a FIR against Chura-Chandpur
01:57 leader allegedly involved in the instigation of violence.
