This is journalism on the ground, reporting as things are. We need people like Mr Tiwary to at least comprehend the whats and whys of the complex issue.
As a Manipuri, this is my first public post on the Manipur issue. Thank you, Deeptiman Tiwary ji for understanding the issue so very well. I was so frustrated with the biased reporting in every other news outlet be it one way or the other way. Wishing for a fast return to normalcy in my state Manipur and wishing Deeptiman ji a long healthy life and many more instances of such astute journalism.
Yes, every one saying Manipur is burning burning but as out sliders we never know what is the root cause. None of the channels covered and I think they don't have interest to know also Pretty sad where our journalism is going. Thanks to Indian express to reveal the complete story.
Indian express reporter DEEPTIMAN TIWARI has done tremendous reporting . I’m admired by his knowledge of understanding what is “news” and what is ground reality . The way he understood and explained every situation and things/thoughts occurring in general publics sentiments , is commendable. Points and facts he presented is in such simple well put together, that every media channels tried couldn’t explain it properly for people living outside manipur. He summed up everything in one interview. Thank you for your reporting .
Well explained. Crystal clear. This like palestine. Israel dispute. No solution. People themselves come forward to settle unconditionally. Highcourt order must be respected.
Some correction to The thing he don't get right was... 1.Torbung area was not a place where rally took place. Rally took place from Lamka Peace Ground to Ccpur DC office(Tuibong). Torbung was the district border. Peace rally was held in the heart of the town. 2. There was no women raped by Kuki during the whole violence till now...Rape was just a fake news spread among the meitei themselves.
True! Also we should know that it may look like both are shooting at each other but the truth is one side is shoots in attack and the other is shoots in defence. Proof is, the Assam rifles ( Jawans ) shoots only the perpetrators. There are days where the shoot occurs only between the perpetrators and the Assam rifles. It isn’t because the Army takes sides. Whoever wants peace, demands president rule. The meitei knows it very well that it is up to them that they can call peace whenever they wish to, that is by ceasing the attack. But this privilege of choice does not exist for the Unau Kuki tribes. Simply because they cannot predict when will the meitei stop attacking .
What he said is that the genesis of the violence is when Kukis started burning Torbung village. Which is 💯 percent correct btw . No one is going to object to peace rallies. But once you start burning houses and temples, you have awakened the sleeping giant.
@@goodsamaritan208Sleeping gaint?... 😂 had the kukis do not show sympathy to your meitei in ccpur and moreh 1000 meitei could have been killed.. We do not killed innocent women, child and defenseless innocent people unlike meitei who killed kukis in imphal valley. Till now meitei died because they attack kuki villages after total separation.
@@boilendimngel8181 I'm allergic to blatant lies. Stop pretending to be saints. The amount of barbarism shown by you is clear to everyone. Atrocities committed by both sides and you still act like you are innocent. Pathetic
Dear Kuki and Meitie brothers and sisters , I can understand that there is deep mistrust between the two communities. My big question is, who will benefit out of this violence. Losers of this violence are the innocent people of both the communities for sure. Cool heads from both communities should sit together and find a resolution because PEACE is the only way to secure a bright Future for the children of both communities.
Why is this gentlemen speaking only truth. I am in tears after learning that there are someone who knew the very true though all valley biased news spread only lies.. Sallute to you Sir.
Manipur tragedy : Both the HM of India & CM of Manipur ,should be dismissed by the president of India ,as they have failed horribly to stop the massacre of kuki,Zo, & other Christian tribals . 150 murdered in cold blood, 350 churches burnt/ defiled, 50000 displaced, houses burnt . Only Christians are targetted & killed . Seperate state should be given for Kuki Christians tribals by the president of India.
#Who started the rioting once High Court judgement came - when they could and should have gone to Supreme Court against the High Court judgement but resorted to violence targeting the other communities instead? #Who is shamelessly smug selfish and greedy enough to hog all reservations at the cost of indigenous people despite being settlers brought in by their British masters from outside? Who has cornered 90% of the land in the State for themselves and refuses to share the common resources with the bigger half of the population? #Who has been systematically increasing their population at an alarming rate by using every cunning, conniving, immoral, unethical and illegal method imaginable with the clear aim of rendering indigenous population a minority in their ancestral Homeland and then, of course, ethnically cleansing them as well? #Who is notorious for being involved in the infamous Narco-Terrorism in the region (illegally cultivating poppy, making heroin, smuggling-trading narcotics and relying on terrorism to sustain their heinous crime activities without any shame, scruples, self-respect, integrity or goodwill whatsoever?? #Who has no qualms in turning into treacherous parasitical-ingrates hands-in-glove with foreign forces inimical to India _per se_ ? Who not only believes but also shamelessly preaches and indoctrinates their children into such despicably hateful & disgustingly bigoted variety of Purely Evil Ideology which claims that their foreign god will torture and burn their fellow human beings who follow indigenous belief system of their ancestors in hellfire for eternity - just because they have refused to convert to the totalitarian-supremacist religion despite criminally aggressive, expansionist proselytisation carried out by its followers?
The ultimate conclusion is that the law and order led by BJP Govt is a total failure in Manipur, yet they refuse to take action on brining peace and are shamelessly continuing to ignore the situation. Why the President rule is not being imposed. Pray that peace be restored in Manipur. Thank you Indian Express for reporting on on this burning issue.

Correction: The Solidarity March was peacefully ended at around 2:00 pm, after the peaceful rally the returnees saw a Meitei miscreants burning Anglo-Kuki War Centenary Gate in Churachandpur, till than, things was not escalated. The counter blocked by the Meiteis at Torbung and Kangvai areas started burning Kuki houses and killed a pastor in the border village of Ccpur and Bishnupur district.
Stop your lame excuse and spreading lies to the world...world knows it was preplanned with a hidden agenda by your kuki terrorists leader sitting in myanmar and we have enough proof... If you believe in Jesus, stand up for the truth...
@@itsskunky7670 When the videos of the rally surfaced, the so called peaceful rally was burning the Anglo-Kuki War Centenary Gate to incite violence. Where were you then? Btw I was in Moirang at the time. So I can call out your bullshittery easily
A Fabulous discussion & interview with Journalist Diptiman Tiwary (a Brilliant investigative Journalist & Wonderful Story Teller). The absolute Aplomb with which he explained the situation and gave a realistic take on the Ground situation is the Best that we have come across so far. We are lucky to have such a Brilliant Journalist in our Midst. In fact an Honest Government would have taken such people into confidence and sought to work out practical solutions. But in any case the Folks themselves are to Blame for their very sad current predicament, as they have voted for the current Dispensation both at the Centre and State, so they very sadly deserve the way things have turned out for them. But One thing to be said is, Mr. Tiwary's Grandchildren would consider themselves Blessed to have such a Brilliant Storyteller as Grand-Dad. God Bless him with a Long Life and Good Health. We need people like him.
Really a story teller not truth teller. It's Christian Kukis along with migrant Kukis who killed Meteis that triggered it. Even before that as in Kashmir Meities can't purchase any thing in valley but Kukis in plains so Meteits have limited land so there's conflict for land due to over population. How could another state is formed for Kukis only!? Where is the land!? Is it desirable to have Christians only state!? It's religious war?
@@beingfree7172 Really! What will be religion of people if Kukis are given seperate state ( even wanted country weren't they?)Not saw how Christian missionaries that it's ethnic cleansing of Christians is happening. You have to go back starting from CAA agitation where musllms, farm laws agitation where Siks and now Christians to project that minorities are not safe under Modi. All started with 2019 not end until 2024 elections end. Meanwhile international minorities women (wrestlers) were also used.
What an amazing discussion. Thank you Nishant sir and Deeptiman sir. Your explanation was very simple and clear Deeptiman sir. And thank you Nishant sir for another amazing episode. Thank you Indian Express for keeping the head of journalism high in these tough times. Kudos to you 👍👍👏👏👏👏
A very well educated informated presentation of the actual facts in regards to tribal, non tribal, state governance, central governance failure. Very well said Nobody has an answer or solution to this problem. Nor government, nor army, nor local administration. Very unbiased reporting.
You are rightly reporting to nation about the Manipur Violence without partialism and biasness to the government and communities. Thank your valuable reports
You really dont need to mention who are Hindus & who are christians? Whats the point of saying again and again? You indirectly provoke religious communalism
Correct ! Even their BJP MLA whose house was burnt down was a Hindu and burned down by Hindu meiteis. This reporter is biased dragging the issue to religion vs religion.
There is an underlying religious issue as well. They targeted churches and mission schools which cannot be ignored because they are threatened by the percentage of Christians increasing every year. Before the clash, the BJP leaders were head strong on the mission to reconvert the meitei Christians to Sanamahism threatening the meitei Christians suspending them from their jobs. This will not surface anywhere as this is an internal matter. So, on all grounds, we cannot ignore the religious issue as well apart from that of the ethnic clash.
Do you know kukis are a sub-tribe of the nagas 😂 ?? The only discrimination against the nagas happened where there was a conflict between both communities in Manipur in the 90s ..point 👉 in Manipur. Not all nagas consider the statement that kukis are indegenious ..the discrimination happens when there's conflict in any areas
@@DrM-jr5sb false propagandas??..meitei faults will kept on coming now...look up the news ...meitei women blocking the road for their meitei militants to attack kuki villages..its already in the news...its you meitei people who spread fake news...the day will come when you will regret saying dis n dat here
Modi Vs Manmohan ji Modi - has not faced a question from media nor from the opposition party... Manmohan Singh ji - had the guts to face the media and responsibly answer any questions. So the actual "DUMB PM" IS CURRENT PM .... 1. Our PM has a unique achievement in the history of Indian parliament. Modi has not answered even a single question during the question hour in the parliament in the last 9 years of his regime. WOW what an achievement. He deserves to be called as “The Dumb PM of India”. 2. MODANI nexus, why was/is PM dumb stuck when Heidenburg Report came out? . All govt agencies were try to defend a private organisation, instead of doing their due diligence to safe guard citizen’s hard earned money. 3. Zero press conference conducted to discuss any serious topics, like inflation, jobs, petrol/diesel/gas prices rise, Farmers protest, corruption, black money, ED/CBI/IT/ raids against opposition…many more to list. 4. During elections Modiji dressed traditionally went to Manipur several time to get votes, after violence broke out…not a single word came out from Modli’s mouth.
You guys have some shame or left it all @ Myanmar? Who is burning the houses then? Who shot 2 bsf jawans and Assam rifles? Too much fake and lie has been spread from kuki that now no1 believes you guys.
Army said on June 23 that a large group of women who were part of a mob prevented the movement of additional personnel in areas bordering Kangpokpi and Imphal East districts in Manipur as “armed miscreants” opened fire at villages. Though no one was killed or injured in the incident, Army said a pattern had emerged in the past 20 days where armed miscreants sneak into villages and fire with automatic weapons while women protesters block roads, stopping the movement of security forces.

Personally i feel the HC decision was utter stupidity. The state government has failed in it's duty at every level. The CM is utterly biased towards his own community. In such a scenario looking at political calculations is stupidity by center. Responsibility has to be set. And equally importantly PM has to speak. He cannot go being quite for 2 months on such an important issue.
Look at who started the violence...biasedness exist on both sides...the kukis out of Manipur with internet access spreads the same biased reviews as the meiteis in the valley. A major chunk of the problem was instigated by the journalist as well. And the govt took neither side...he became a mute spectator because the root cause (drugs, illegal immigrants, underdevelopment) is where the govt was involved. Sick of all of it.
@@gnam9924 Blaming everything on journalist, or opposition, while giving the responsible people in government a free ticket is the norm. So that's quite understandable. Just that the same set of people find Nehru responsible for all ills even today and not the then opposition or journalists. There are genuine issues. As far as i see, the very idea of giving Meities ST status is wrong. They are rich, have farming land, buisness and have political power, they ruled the state almost continuously. The state CM had made several statements in support of Meities demand. So ofcourse the Kukis felt insecure. All it took was one push and thet push came from HC decision followed by absolute zero preperation for security of Meities for the so called peace march with massive numbers of Kukis. The disaster was bound to happen.
@@AnilYadav-nt9mf and you consumed some biased media reports in your sofa and saying that your cast has suffered in mainland india doesn't mean kukis are suffering Manipur don't white wash everything because it feels very great presenting yourself to be the saviour of marginalised people kukis are as much powerful as meiteis. Don't comment according to presumption with your experiences in mailand India.
@@krishnandaaribam2823 First of all I have not commented on you caste or personal matter. So be civil. Secondly I don't watch much news on TV it's just pathetic. If you do then most likely you believe everything that you yourself are saying like Kukis are this Kukis are that. It's all related to drugs, etc etc. Atleast I have lived with Manipuri's in school who were Kukis, Meities and Nagas. So I do know some bit about them and their culture. I don't know what is your source apart from lying on sofa and watching the TV. Finally, except making personal remarks you didn't counter any rationale or facts that i put across. Again it points to your own lack of knowledge on the matter. So do some reading before writing. And counter arguments by sound arguments and not by personal jibes.

Meitei are minority just 21% of the population, they follow SANAMAHI. First Kuki destroyed Meitei temple at Churchandpur on 3 May 23 followed by arson and other violence. It is not Hindu Temple, PAKHANGBA is worshiped there. It is the Christian community who are giving religious color. Even you don't know the religion of Meitei. Meitei do not consider themself as Hindu, it is you people labelling them as Hindu and giving stereo type religious conflict to demonized others. The houses of Meitei Christians living at Churchandpur are also torched.
@@joykumarisharma4376 Please clarify meitei & meetei groups..& do they follow sanamahi as their religion or Hinduism. Since it seemed like the valley are largely hindus... People are confused! Thanks!
How can you say The Centre is serious about the situation?? The home minister visited after a month of violence in the state. The PM is silent. The steps announced were totally toothless. Instead of clearly imposing president’s rule and taking responsibility and accountability, they have appointed a central command which is unable to reign in violence bcos Biren Singh still has a say in the running of state troops.
The Anglo-Kuki War gate is situated in between torbung and the place where rally took place. So against the peace rally some meitei came and burnt that Gate and ran away and the War began
In kuki area meitei people burnt the war gate? Wow... So what is the profit by burning the war gate.? On 3rd may you people started the violence by burning and destroying the houses properties of meitei in the whole churachandpur area. All the Meitei people had to left churachandpur that is more than 30000 people in between 1 to 2 days
Anglo kuki war gate is just accused , and there is no anglo kuki war and the gate is also controversal .Violence already started before may 3. E.g public gym burining, forest office burning.....
The Hindu Meitei are attacking Christian kuki,They have burn over 200 churches and kill many innocent kuki Christian.Many of them have migrated to their neighbouring state
Yes I can see that. How they are constantly showed what Sonia Gandhi said at bottom left of video at beginning 😂 Dude there is no Godi media. If there was then this kind of reporting wasn't possible. Also from decades there have always been media favoring a particular party. Problem is now both sides have bought media houses.
Only the concerned communities can resolve the conflict and bring about a reconciliation. Leaders of both communities should start a dialogue to this end. Meantime the union government must ensure relative peace during the period of the dialogue. No outside party can give a solution. National politics, and national politicians should have no involvement. Amit Shah's intent to sit with representatives of all national political parties to bring a solution is a sure recipe for disaster.
The Meiteis, as an ethnic entity, were known & documented for their habitual lies & exaggeration even by the British as far back as the 19th century. "It will be noticed that the Manipuris [Meiteis] claim to have done more conquering than our records credit them with."* Bertran S. Carey & H. N. Tuck, The Chin Hills, Volume 1 (1896), Pg. No. 123n3
Burning of minister houses are because they are quite and till today they are quite. They are elected to protect the people of Manipur but they are useless unfortunately Hope both communities intellectual come together + Naga , Muslim, Nepali, bihari and bangali of Manipur talk and bring the peace between the communities as soon as possible
Not a fan of Indian Express but this is very knowledgeable and unbiased reporting without any propoganda or agenda that I have seen in long time on any issue.
Did the tribal mob killed any innocent meitei? No news U have heard. Sure, while defending thier villages, meiteis who went to attack the kuki village.
Tribal mob does go marching with guns and attacking the meiteis initially. How come u guys can lie so much and play victim cards?? We meiteis are common people not the people with guns.. the kukis underground and immigrants and militants or terrorist are the one who attacked us!
Narcoterrorism is not vague demand and it has to starts somewhere..find out the culprits involved and it ll be the first step to save the society of Manipur and country as a whole..
This is journalism on the ground, reporting as things are. We need people like Mr Tiwary to at least comprehend the whats and whys of the complex issue.

Correction: The Solidarity March was peacefully ended at around 2:00 pm, after the peaceful rally the returnees saw a Meitei miscreants burning Anglo-Kuki War Centenary Gate in Churachandpur, till than, things was not escalated. The counter blocked by the Meiteis at Torbung and Kangvai areas started burning Kuki houses and killed a pastor in the border village of Ccpur and Bishnupur district.
You know better than ground reporter?
@@goodsamaritan208was the ground reporter there at the rally? We were there during the rally, and the problem started way after the rally ended
A. Peace really with ak 47
B. Where is the proof that meitei burn you stupid gate.
C. Stop harbouring refugees.
Stop your lame excuse and spreading lies to the world...world knows it was preplanned with a hidden agenda by your kuki terrorists leader sitting in myanmar and we have enough proof...
If you believe in Jesus, stand up for the truth...
@@itsskunky7670 When the videos of the rally surfaced, the so called peaceful rally was burning the Anglo-Kuki War Centenary Gate to incite violence. Where were you then?
Btw I was in Moirang at the time. So I can call out your bullshittery easily
Loud n clear, wise n unbaised.
Love this interview.
THIS INTERVIEW HAS GIVEN A CLEAR PICTURE OF MANIPUR WHICH NO CHANNEL HAS GIVEN. A TRUE INTERVIEW
I believe he is the only one journalist who says only the truth and facts.
Hats off....
This is called ethics of journalism.
Not like India's today...
Truth is Truth.
No one can denay & we love our Mother Land.
A Fabulous discussion & interview with Journalist Diptiman Tiwary (a Brilliant investigative Journalist & Wonderful Story Teller). The absolute Aplomb with which he explained the situation and gave a realistic take on the Ground situation is the Best that we have come across so far. We are lucky to have such a Brilliant Journalist in our Midst. In fact an Honest Government would have taken such people into confidence and sought to work out practical solutions. But in any case the Folks themselves are to Blame for their very sad current predicament, as they have voted for the current Dispensation both at the Centre and State, so they very sadly deserve the way things have turned out for them. But One thing to be said is, Mr. Tiwary's Grandchildren would consider themselves Blessed to have such a Brilliant Storyteller as Grand-Dad. God Bless him with a Long Life and Good Health. We need people like him.
Really a story teller not truth teller. It's Christian Kukis along with migrant Kukis who killed Meteis that triggered it. Even before that as in Kashmir Meities can't purchase any thing in valley but Kukis in plains so Meteits have limited land so there's conflict for land due to over population. How could another state is formed for Kukis only!? Where is the land!? Is it desirable to have Christians only state!? It's religious war?
@@subbaraotanguturu9271You are giving it a religious color whereas it's a war between two ethnicity.
@@beingfree7172 Really! What will be religion of people if Kukis are given seperate state ( even wanted country weren't they?)Not saw how Christian missionaries that it's ethnic cleansing of Christians is happening. You have to go back starting from CAA agitation where musllms, farm laws agitation where Siks and now Christians to project that minorities are not safe under Modi. All started with 2019 not end until 2024 elections end. Meanwhile international minorities women (wrestlers) were also used.
True journalism.....well said!
What an amazing discussion. Thank you Nishant sir and Deeptiman sir. Your explanation was very simple and clear Deeptiman sir.
And thank you Nishant sir for another amazing episode.
Thank you Indian Express for keeping the head of journalism high in these tough times. Kudos to you 👍👍👏👏👏👏
Wow one of the best insight on Manipur conflict so far. 👍
This is called impartial reporting. 👍
True journalist.. salute to you. Best explanation about Manipur violence.
Really appreciate the way you reveal the truth ❤️
Wonderful briefing of the situation.Thanks Mr. Deeptiman.
A very well educated informated presentation of the actual facts in regards to tribal, non tribal, state governance, central governance failure. Very well said Nobody has an answer or solution to this problem. Nor government, nor army, nor local administration. Very unbiased reporting.
You are rightly reporting to nation about the Manipur Violence without partialism and biasness to the government and communities.
Thank your valuable reports
Praying for Peace in Manipur 🙏
One of the best reporting video I have ever seen.
Hats off to you Sir for presenting the viewers the truth and for not fearing to speak out the facts the entire fiasco
What a great unbiased review of ground report. Thank you tewari sir
Hope and pray the peace is restored.
Deeptiman was at his usual best. Well articulated interview. Got a front seat view of the problem in Manipur! Really inspiring!
Great reporting .. hats off..
Very nice analysis, everything explained in a simple and clear way. Thanks for this ground report
You really dont need to mention who are Hindus & who are christians? Whats the point of saying again and again? You indirectly provoke religious communalism
Correct ! Even their BJP MLA whose house was burnt down was a Hindu and burned down by Hindu meiteis. This reporter is biased dragging the issue to religion vs religion.
Correct 👍
There is an underlying religious issue as well. They targeted churches and mission schools which cannot be ignored because they are threatened by the percentage of Christians increasing every year.
Before the clash, the BJP leaders were head strong on the mission to reconvert the meitei Christians to Sanamahism threatening the meitei Christians suspending them from their jobs. This will not surface anywhere as this is an internal matter.
So, on all grounds, we cannot ignore the religious issue as well apart from that of the ethnic clash.
So the meiteis and nagas both claim that the kukis are not indigenous but the kukis say they are indigenous.
Who are we to believe? 😮😮
Meities and Nagas
Kukis are extremely selfish and war mongers
Do you know kukis are a sub-tribe of the nagas 😂 ?? The only discrimination against the nagas happened where there was a conflict between both communities in Manipur in the 90s ..point 👉 in Manipur. Not all nagas consider the statement that kukis are indegenious ..the discrimination happens when there's conflict in any areas
Kukis killings meiteis too?? That was actually because meiteis attack kuki villages
Kuki self defense kills their attackers. Then the Meitei twist the story.
Yareda Sister praise the Lord loi sallo
@@RK-hj7or what are you saying bruh
Stop with the fake propaganda we all know why u are spreading false propaganda
@@DrM-jr5sb false propagandas??..meitei faults will kept on coming now...look up the news ...meitei women blocking the road for their meitei militants to attack kuki villages..its already in the news...its you meitei people who spread fake news...the day will come when you will regret saying dis n dat here
Modi Vs Manmohan ji
Modi - has not faced a question from media nor from the opposition party...
Manmohan Singh ji - had the guts to face the media and responsibly answer any questions.
So the actual "DUMB PM" IS CURRENT PM ....
1. Our PM has a unique achievement in the history of Indian parliament. Modi has not answered even a single question during the question hour in the parliament in the last 9 years of his regime. WOW what an achievement. He deserves to be called as “The Dumb PM of India”.
2. MODANI nexus, why was/is PM dumb stuck when Heidenburg Report came out? . All govt agencies were try to defend a private organisation, instead of doing their due diligence to safe guard citizen’s hard earned money.
3. Zero press conference conducted to discuss any serious topics, like inflation, jobs, petrol/diesel/gas prices rise, Farmers protest, corruption, black money, ED/CBI/IT/ raids against opposition…many more to list.
4. During elections Modiji dressed traditionally went to Manipur several time to get votes, after violence broke out…not a single word came out from Modli’s mouth.
Your presentation is good but you need more study on the fact that Kuki didn't attack so far, we are just defending our villages.
You guys have some shame or left it all @ Myanmar? Who is burning the houses then? Who shot 2 bsf jawans and Assam rifles? Too much fake and lie has been spread from kuki that now no1 believes you guys.
What a joke
they are photos of kukis mob with guns in street. tribes remain tribes
Jut mut😂😂 kukis immigration
Joke of the century 😂😂😂
Immediately CM should be ousted
What a deliberate stupidity of CM to issue arms to civillion.
Observations:
Both sides did not take 3000 each guns from the police
All houses do not have guns 😢
High level of journalism by Indian express journalist on Manipur violence .
Separate Administration only solution
Yes, separate admininstration in Maynmar is only solution
Yes. Go back to Myanmar
Mina hai haidana panghai hainuko
No separate administration in manipur never ......5
Army said on June 23 that a large group of women who were part of a mob prevented the movement of additional personnel in areas bordering Kangpokpi and Imphal East districts in Manipur as “armed miscreants” opened fire at villages. Though no one was killed or injured in the incident, Army said a pattern had emerged in the past 20 days where armed miscreants sneak into villages and fire with automatic weapons while women protesters block roads, stopping the movement of security forces.
Wow you both guys are really well educated thanks you for your wise wisdom n knowledge,
MAY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST PROTECT US AND GIVE US JUSTICE ⚖️
Modiji won't speak on this matter as the crisis would get linked to his failure and get international attention.

Very well explained. God bless you sir!
Personally i feel the HC decision was utter stupidity. The state government has failed in it's duty at every level. The CM is utterly biased towards his own community. In such a scenario looking at political calculations is stupidity by center. Responsibility has to be set.
And equally importantly PM has to speak. He cannot go being quite for 2 months on such an important issue.
Look at who started the violence...biasedness exist on both sides...the kukis out of Manipur with internet access spreads the same biased reviews as the meiteis in the valley. A major chunk of the problem was instigated by the journalist as well. And the govt took neither side...he became a mute spectator because the root cause (drugs, illegal immigrants, underdevelopment) is where the govt was involved. Sick of all of it.
@@gnam9924 Blaming everything on journalist, or opposition, while giving the responsible people in government a free ticket is the norm. So that's quite understandable. Just that the same set of people find Nehru responsible for all ills even today and not the then opposition or journalists.
There are genuine issues. As far as i see, the very idea of giving Meities ST status is wrong. They are rich, have farming land, buisness and have political power, they ruled the state almost continuously.
The state CM had made several statements in support of Meities demand. So ofcourse the Kukis felt insecure. All it took was one push and thet push came from HC decision followed by absolute zero preperation for security of Meities for the so called peace march with massive numbers of Kukis. The disaster was bound to happen.
@@AnilYadav-nt9mf and you consumed some biased media reports in your sofa and saying that your cast has suffered in mainland india doesn't mean kukis are suffering Manipur don't white wash everything because it feels very great presenting yourself to be the saviour of marginalised people kukis are as much powerful as meiteis. Don't comment according to presumption with your experiences in mailand India.
@@krishnandaaribam2823 First of all I have not commented on you caste or personal matter. So be civil. Secondly I don't watch much news on TV it's just pathetic. If you do then most likely you believe everything that you yourself are saying like Kukis are this Kukis are that. It's all related to drugs, etc etc.
Atleast I have lived with Manipuri's in school who were Kukis, Meities and Nagas. So I do know some bit about them and their culture. I don't know what is your source apart from lying on sofa and watching the TV.
Finally, except making personal remarks you didn't counter any rationale or facts that i put across. Again it points to your own lack of knowledge on the matter. So do some reading before writing. And counter arguments by sound arguments and not by personal jibes.
Why only you want to ripe the benefits of reservation .
Extremely interesting interview. He was spot on. One of the best interviews of ground zero. Thank you
Very well explained and analysed.good reports👍
Informative
Nice explanation
Thank u
Thank you for addressing these real issues
Poppy Plantation

Equally important fact is that all these have been present for quite some time, yet such level of violence has never taken place.
kick out those illegal immigrants

Poster in Manipur in both areas. Missing prime minister of india Mr Modi, last seen in election rally in Manipur
Meitei groups attempted to give this conflict a religious colour. That’s why even meitei churches were also destroyed in Imphal.
Meitei are minority just 21% of the population, they follow SANAMAHI. First Kuki destroyed Meitei temple at Churchandpur on 3 May 23 followed by arson and other violence. It is not Hindu Temple, PAKHANGBA is worshiped there. It is the Christian community who are giving religious color. Even you don't know the religion of Meitei. Meitei do not consider themself as Hindu, it is you people labelling them as Hindu and giving stereo type religious conflict to demonized others. The houses of Meitei Christians living at Churchandpur are also torched.
@@joykumarisharma4376 just shut it. Don’t try to re-orient the narrative and twist facts.
@@joykumarisharma4376
Please clarify meitei & meetei groups..& do they follow sanamahi as their religion or Hinduism. Since it seemed like the valley are largely hindus... People are confused! Thanks!
@@joykumarisharma4376 What non sense is This Totally 240 churches have been burnt as against only 17 temples.
@@joykumarisharma4376😂😂😂lol meitei sakthu spotted
Meitei are disgraceful. Love and support to Kuki from Arunachal Pradesh.
Just to make you informed even the Meteis are recorded as Kuki Chin subtribe
Nice Interview. Totally unbiased and neutral. They didn't take any sides and stated facts as facts.
How can you say The Centre is serious about the situation?? The home minister visited after a month of violence in the state. The PM is silent. The steps announced were totally toothless. Instead of clearly imposing president’s rule and taking responsibility and accountability, they have appointed a central command which is unable to reign in violence bcos Biren Singh still has a say in the running of state troops.
Deeptiman sir you are the what I call a BAAP..hats off to you
The Anglo-Kuki War gate is situated in between torbung and the place where rally took place. So against the peace rally some meitei came and burnt that Gate and ran away and the War began
In kuki area meitei people burnt the war gate? Wow... So what is the profit by burning the war gate.? On 3rd may you people started the violence by burning and destroying the houses properties of meitei in the whole churachandpur area. All the Meitei people had to left churachandpur that is more than 30000 people in between 1 to 2 days
@@th.shankarmeitei6506yes because that time meitei also living in kuki area just like in imphan valley kuki was there in meitei dominated area.
Anglo kuki war gate is just accused , and there is no anglo kuki war and the gate is also controversal .Violence already started before may 3. E.g public gym burining, forest office burning.....
@@Sam-dx7jh where are you from, now here in manipur, no kuki area will exist, they are migrants, criminal,

He speaks to the truth ❤
The Hindu Meitei are attacking Christian kuki,They have burn over 200 churches and kill many innocent kuki Christian.Many of them have migrated to their neighbouring state
They even seem to destroy their own temples just to blame kuki and start war
And the cookies attacking Hindu koubru leikha shiv mandir ,leimakhong shiv mandir moreh kondong lairembi ....whot is this?
Thank God we have some good journalist in this country
Indian express is not a Godi paper hence true reporting without siding any party.
Yes I can see that. How they are constantly showed what Sonia Gandhi said at bottom left of video at beginning 😂
Dude there is no Godi media. If there was then this kind of reporting wasn't possible.
Also from decades there have always been media favoring a particular party. Problem is now both sides have bought media houses.
Appreciate the clean delivery of News
Sir, you didn't talk about the burning of worship places. Who is behind burning Maity Churches and others?
दीप्ति मान तिवारी जी को सुना अच्छा विश्लेषण किया है धन्यवाद। यह संघर्ष क्यों शुरू है यह तिवारी जी ने स्पष्ट किया है
Only the concerned communities can resolve the conflict and bring about a reconciliation.
Leaders of both communities should start a dialogue to this end.
Meantime the union government must ensure relative peace during the period of the dialogue.
No outside party can give a solution.
National politics, and national politicians should have no involvement.
Amit Shah's intent to sit with representatives of all national political parties to bring a solution is a sure recipe for disaster.
This is called journalism 👏👏👏
The Meiteis, as an ethnic entity,
were known & documented for their
habitual lies & exaggeration even by
the British as far back as the 19th
century.
"It will be noticed that the
Manipuris [Meiteis] claim to have
done more conquering than our
records credit them with."*
Bertran S. Carey & H. N. Tuck, The
Chin Hills, Volume 1 (1896), Pg.
No. 123n3
Now changing statements is a meitei thing. If someone lies too much, just say 'don't be a meitei,don't meitei around, stop meiteiing etc'
Kuki is a cheap living human easily available at less price. Do you understand .
@@maxartpokemon8288 Only you and your people can say something so inhumane👏👏
Please keep it up.
It suits you
6:48 he says 82% of the victims are kukis. This is enough evidence to suggest who is the victim and who is the perpetrator
Burning of minister houses are because they are quite and till today they are quite. They are elected to protect the people of Manipur but they are useless unfortunately
Hope both communities intellectual come together + Naga , Muslim, Nepali, bihari and bangali of Manipur talk and bring the peace between the communities as soon as possible
great reporting. Balanced and to the point.
Separate administration is the only solution for permanent peace... We already separated physically and emotionally mentally
Not a fan of Indian Express but this is very knowledgeable and unbiased reporting without any propoganda or agenda that I have seen in long time on any issue.
India Today ,NDTV, cnn, republic tv and other noisy channels..., should learn from this...., India needs honest reporting. Peace in Manipur.
Well explained 👏
Did the tribal mob killed any innocent meitei? No news U have heard. Sure, while defending thier villages, meiteis who went to attack the kuki village.
Tribal mob does go marching with guns and attacking the meiteis initially. How come u guys can lie so much and play victim cards?? We meiteis are common people not the people with guns.. the kukis underground and immigrants and militants or terrorist are the one who attacked us!
Our netas proved incapable in handling situation and establishing peace in Manipur.
Narcoterrorism is not vague demand and it has to starts somewhere..find out the culprits involved and it ll be the first step to save the society of Manipur and country as a whole..
Narcoterrorism has its roots even in the meitei politicicians. Now they are using Kuki as scapegoat.
Follow the money, and you'll find the kingpins, who has several bungalows settling somewhere not in the hills I believe.
This is What Is Called Journalist and Journalism. Thanks Indian Express for Ground Report
