Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday gave a detailed reply on how the clashes started in Manipur and what
the Centre had done in the last two months to contain the violence between two communities – Meities and Kukis.
Earlier in the day, while speaking for the motion, Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said the power of a no-confidence motion has brought the Prime Minister to the Parliament. He said that none of the opposition MPs were thinking about this no-confidence motion. “We were only demanding that PM Modi should come to the Parliament and speak on the Manipur issue,” he said. “We were not demanding any BJP member to come to the Parliament, we were only demanding our PM to come.”
Amit Shah’s reply on Manipur
Highlighting the causes of current tensions, the Home Minister on Wednesday said problems started in Manipur with a huge influx of Kuki refugees from neighbouring Myanmar. He said the Kuki refugees started settling down in the forest areas in the Manipur valley, raising fears of a demographic change in the region. The unrest in the valley began when rumours began to circulate that the refugee settlements had been declared as villages. But, he said, what triggered the clash was the Manipur High Court’s order that directed the government to consider the inclusion of Meiteis in the list of Scheduled Tribes.
Amit Shah on action taken by Centre
The Home Minister said that after clashes started, the central government changed the chief secretary, director general of police and sent a security advisor, and made him in charge of the unified command mechanism. Shah said the Centre has established a peace committee as part of efforts to restore normalcy in Manipur. He said over 36,000 security personnel have been stationed between Kukis and Meiteis as a buffer zone, and a unified command has been created to coordinate between BSF, CRPF, Assam Rifles and Manipur police.
