Amit Shah asks Manipur CM to accelerate peace process, approves formation of all-woman police battalion
Ethnic violence is ongoing and the article frames it as a routine issue.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah met with Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh on Wednesday to discuss the ongoing peace process in the state. Shah asked Mr. Singh to accelerate the peace process and consolidate community unity, agreeing in principle to raising an all-woman police battalion for Manipur. The meeting followed ethnic violence between the Meitei and Kuki-Zo communities that erupted in May 2023, claiming over 250 lives. The burial of Vungzagin Valte, a BJP MLA who was assaulted in May 2023 and passed away in February 2024, is yet to take place due to family and community demands for an investigation by the NIA and political solutions.
