Kuki Inpi Opposes Manipur SIR Over IDP Exclusion
PRESS STATEMENT
4th June 2026
The ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Manipur is unacceptable under the prevailing circumstances and raises serious concerns regarding fairness, inclusivity, and administrative responsibility. The Kuki Inpi Manipur had expected that the government would first put in place adequate and practical arrangements to address the situation of the approximately 59,000 Kuki-Zo internally displaced persons (IDPs), who continue to remain displaced and are unable to return to their homes to participate in this exercise.
Proceeding with such a critical electoral and administrative exercise without ensuring the participation of a large and vulnerable section of the population undermines the very principles of democratic representation. The exclusion, whether direct or indirect, of these IDPs from the SIR process renders the exercise incomplete and unacceptable in its present form.
It is therefore imperative that the government, along with the concerned district administrations, take immediate and concrete steps to establish accessible and inclusive mechanisms that will enable all affected IDPs to be duly enrolled and participate in the revision process. Any continuation of the SIR without such provisions would not only be unjust but would also call into question the legitimacy and credibility of the entire exercise.
In light of these concerns, satisfactory arrangements have to be made by the concerned authorities to ensure that no displaced person is left out of the process.

“From information made available to us, it was found that the tribes in Assam and Manipur had been classified by the British officers as Kukis, Nagas, Akas or Lushais in a casual fashion. Some of them are tribal names and others are general. Certain tribes resented being included wrongly under different regional or tribal names. It was suggested that the Scheduled should simply mention Any Kuki or Lushai tribe, but his too in our mind, would not solve the problem satisfactorily. There are the Hmars, the Paites and others for instance, refused to be classified among Kuki or Nagas. Though some of the Paite are Chin and objection was raised to their classification under the general heading of Chin. In these circumstances, we are of the opinion that it would be more convenient to list all the tribes by their own particular names in the hilly areas of Assam and Manipur”.

Suppose we give the following word “what” to show the difference between Paite, Lushei, or Kuki: English(what?) Paite(Bangahia?), Kuki[Thadou](Ipiham?), Lushei(Engani?). If this demand of recognition be denied of us, it cannot mean other thing than denial of citizenship to us… the paites will take it for granted that they are not wanted to be integral part of Indians, and therefore can join any other Government which will give them(Paites) due recognition and they cannot be blamed for that…” chiin nget leh vauthoh uhi.

Education Under Fire in Patna
THE alarming assault on the Khan Global Coaching Institute in Patna on Tuesday night is a shocking reminder of how ugly corporate greed can become when it infiltrates the sacred space of education. A crowd of around twenty individuals, allegedly linked to a rival coaching centre, pelted stones, smashed property, and brutally assaulted an innocent security guard, who is now fighting a severe head injury in hospital. While the prompt arrest of three suspects, including a rival director, shows efficient policing, the deeper issue is far more unsettling. Faisal Khan, affectionately known across India as ‘Khan Sir’, has long been a target for greedy competitors simply because he dares to make high-quality education truly affordable. For years, his heavily subsidized fees “sometimes as low as £2” have broken down the financial barriers preventing underprivileged youths from clearing competitive civil and police exams.

| Via @https://www.youtube.com/@Viral_Khan_Sir |
Born into a humble family with a strong sense of public service, Khan Sir chose the classroom over a traditional corporate career to become a genuine lifeline for millions. Launching his institute to help those left behind by the expensive, commercialized coaching industry, his witty, local teaching style quickly turned his YouTube channel into an absolute national phenomenon. His massive online presence and his recent success in coaching thousands of students into the Bihar Police have clearly frustrated a corrupt network of commercial operators who view education merely as a balance sheet. This violent attack was not just a random act of vandalism; it was a deliberate, desperate attempt to bully a dedicated educator who completely refuses to exploit poor families for profit.
The Bihar government’s promise to formulate a regulatory policy within three months is a welcome step, but immediate, iron-clad protection must be given to institutions that serve the public good. Education should never be treated like a ruthless corporate battlefield where stones and intimidation are used to crush fair competition. We must strongly condemn these attackers and demand that the police hunt down every single person involved in this cowardly act. Khan Sir’s absolute resilience shows that the true value of education lies in uplifting the community, not in squeezing money out of desperate, struggling parents.
This unfortunate event carries a profound and timely lesson for conflict-torn regions across the world, such as Lamka town in Manipur. Ever since the devastating ethnic violence erupted in May 2023, local families have endured unimaginable hardships, leaving young students displaced, deeply traumatized, and financially broken. In these testing times, coaching institutes in Lamka must draw great inspiration from Khan Sir’s noble philosophy. Instead of focusing on profit, local educators should step up as community healers by offering heavy fee concessions and free remedial classes to these vulnerable children. True education must always be a beacon of hope, safety, and unwavering support, especially when society is struggling to rebuild itself.

Financial Literacy Drive Launched in Noney District
Noney, June 3, 2026: The Deputy Commissioner of Noney, Shri Vidyamari Sridhar, launched a Special Financial Literacy Campaign at the DC Office, Noney, in collaboration with Punjab National Bank (PNB) and Manipur Rural Bank (MRB). The initiative aims to strengthen financial security and social protection among government employees.
The campaign focuses on creating awareness and encouraging enrollment in three flagship social security schemes of the Government of India — the Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY), Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY), and Atal Pension Yojana (APY).

Speaking at the launch, Shri Vidyamari Sridhar highlighted the importance of financial planning and social security for government employees and their families. He urged all eligible staff members to take advantage of these affordable and beneficial schemes to secure their future and build financial resilience against unforeseen circumstances.
As a gesture of support, the Deputy Commissioner announced that he would sponsor the first-time registration fee for all staff members enrolling under the schemes.

Anunay Anand Assumes Charge as Pherzawl Deputy Commissioner
Pherzawl, June 3, 2026 (DIO): Shri Anunay Anand, IAS, formally took charge as the Deputy Commissioner of Pherzawl on Wednesday, ushering in a new phase of administrative leadership in the district. He succeeds Smt. Mannuamching, who had been serving as Deputy Commissioner since February 2025.
An IAS officer of the Manipur cadre, Shri Anand is expected to continue strengthening governance, enhancing public service delivery, and advancing developmental programmes across the district. His appointment comes as several flagship government schemes and community-oriented initiatives are being implemented in Pherzawl.
A formal handing-over ceremony was held in the district headquarters and attended by district officials, staff members, and well-wishers. The gathering extended a warm welcome to the incoming Deputy Commissioner while expressing appreciation for the contributions and dedicated service rendered by Smt. Mannuamching during her tenure.
Officials expressed confidence that the new Deputy Commissioner’s leadership will further support the district’s development efforts and administrative goals.
Reclaiming Humanity
THE fragile peace in Manipur took another
distressing turn this week when a total shutdown paralyzed Naga-inhabited areas
and key highways were blocked. Activists called for the agitation following
grave concerns over six missing Nagas, who are feared to be held captive.
Although the Kuki Inpi Manipur has explicitly denied these allegations, the
boiling mistrust on the ground is palpable. This round of blockades comes on
the heels of a heartbreaking setback on June 1st. The United Naga Council had
initially announced the safe release of fourteen Kuki civilians. However,
intense pressure from localized Naga groups forced a last-minute cancellation,
leaving families in absolute despair. While it is now painfully clear these
captives remain in Naga custody, anger has spilled over domestically, leading
local citizens to storm the council headquarters in protest.
.png)
This strategy of using innocent civilians as political shields or bargaining chips is deeply troubling. It stands against every tenet of humanity, fundamental ethics, and the core Christian values that the majority of these communities hold so dear. Manipur has been trapped in a relentless cycle of communal violence since May 2023, leaving thousands of Meitei and Kuki-Zo families displaced from their ancestral homes. Villages have been turned to ash, and places of worship destroyed. Now, an entirely new layer of conflict has opened up between sections of the Naga and Kuki communities. What began as a tragic drunken brawl in Ukhrul district back in February has festered over the months. Coming just days after a new state government took charge, this spreading fire threatens to engulf communities that had previously managed to avoid the worst of the regional madness.
Manipur is, at its heart, a beautiful and vibrant
tapestry woven from the unique lives of the Meitei, Pangal, Naga, and Kuki peoples. Yet, no one gains anything from this perpetual state of war; it yields
nothing but ashes, economic devastation, and the irreplaceable loss of human
lives. There is truly no reward in this bloodshed, and no community can find
prosperity in the ruin of its neighbour. Genuine, lasting security can never be
built on the suffering of hostaged innocents or the isolation of blockaded
highways. True strength lies in the courage to stop retaliating and to start
listening to the pain of the other side.
Therefore, the only sustainable way forward is to
urgently transition from the combat of the jungles to the constructive arena of
the negotiation table. True peace will remain completely out of reach until
community leaders find the resolve to transform their own minds and stop the
destructive cycle of blame. Peaceful co-existence is not a luxury or a distant,
idealistic dream: it is an absolute, daily necessity for physical survival in a
shared homeland. Leaders must sit down face-to-face, look into each other’s
eyes, and choose honest dialogue over hatred. Only when weapons are traded for
words can the people of Manipur finally begin to heal, rebuild their broken
lives, and safeguard a shared future for generations to come.

Pherzawl Honours Outgoing DC Mannuamching
Pherzawl, June 2, 2026 (DIO): The District Administration of Pherzawl on Tuesday accorded a warm and emotional farewell to Deputy Commissioner Smt. Mannuamching, IAS, during a function held at the Conference Hall of the Deputy Commissioner’s Office.
The farewell programme was attended by district-level officers and staff, who gathered to acknowledge her contributions and dedicated service during her tenure in the district.
Speaking on behalf of the administration, Additional Deputy Commissioner Shri Zosanglur Joute expressed gratitude for her leadership and commitment towards the development of Pherzawl. He also conveyed best wishes for her future responsibilities.
Several senior officials shared their experiences of working with the outgoing Deputy Commissioner and praised her professionalism, dedication, and people-oriented approach. Among those who spoke were Superintendent of Police Shri T. Lalboi Haokip, Chief Executive Officer of Churachandpur Shri Shokhongam Baite, Divisional Forest Officer Smt. Niangthianhoi, IFS, and SDO Vangai Shri Lalthanzam.
In her farewell address, Smt. Mannuamching thanked the officers and staff for their cooperation and support throughout her tenure. She emphasized the importance of adaptability in public service and urged officials to continue serving the people with sincerity and commitment wherever they are posted.
Reflecting on the achievements made during her tenure, she highlighted the opening of two bank branches in Pherzawl, a significant milestone for a district that had long been categorized as unbanked. She encouraged officials to continue supporting initiatives aimed at strengthening banking services in the district.
The outgoing Deputy Commissioner also stressed the need to further improve education and road connectivity, calling upon all stakeholders to work collectively for the district’s sustained growth and development.
Smt. Mannuamching has been transferred and will take charge as Special Secretary (Finance) and Secretary to the Government of Manipur. This marks the conclusion of her second tenure as Deputy Commissioner of Pherzawl, having previously served in the district in 2019.
No Winners in Hate: Only Peace Can Save Us
THE delicate fabric of peace in Manipur is tearing along a perilous new fault line. For weeks, the deeply worrying standoff between the Naga and Kuki-Zo communities has held the state on a knife-edge. The crisis peaked on Monday afternoon when a glimmer of hope “the scheduled release of 14 Kuki civilians detainees by the United Naga Council (UNC)” abruptly vanished. At the eleventh hour, under severe pressure from youth groups like the Senapati District Students Association and Joint Tribes Council of Manipur, the UNC called off the release, citing intense public resentment. This sudden reversal leaves 14 Kuki civilians and six missing Naga youths trapped as human bargaining chips, pushing an already fragile region closer to the brink of unwanted bloodshed.
It is easy to understand the deep anxieties fueling this deadlock. The Naga community is understandably distressed over the unknown fate of their six young men who have been missing since the tragic violence of mid-May. Tribal bodies feel that a unilateral release without reciprocal transparency from Kuki groups compromises their leverage. Yet, matching grievance with grievance creates a dangerous stalemate. Using innocent civilians as shields or political tools is a profound violation of the very Christian values, customary laws, and humanitarian ethics that both communities proudly claim to uphold. When political parties and church leaders appeal for an unconditional release, they are not asking either side to surrender their rights; they are begging them to preserve their humanity.
The hard truth that both Naga and Kuki leaders must face is that this escalating friction offers no trophies and no victory laps. In a conflict of this nature, there is no winner; there is only a shared, devastating loss. If local leadership allows anger to dictate their next moves, the cost will be measured in more shattered families, deeper structural hatred, and predictable nightmares for future generations. The only way to thwart further tragedy is to break this bitter cycle of retaliation. Dialogue cannot begin in a room filled with hostages, and trust cannot be built while families are left weeping in the dark.
For the sake of humanity, the leaders of both sides must listen to their collective conscience rather than their most radical voices. They must courageously choose a dignified, transparent mechanism to set all captives free, unharmed and without delay. Mutual understanding is not a sign of weakness; it is the ultimate act of strength required for peaceful coexistence. True justice will not be achieved by withholding freedom from others, but by ensuring that no more innocent blood is spilled on this shared soil. Peace remains the only viable choice, and it must begin with an immediate, compassionate release of every single hostage.

Addressing media personnel, the DEO said the Special Intensive Revision of Electoral Rolls has commenced in accordance with the directives of the Election Commission of India, with July 1, 2026, fixed as the qualifying date. The exercise aims to ensure the inclusion of all eligible voters and the removal of ineligible names from the electoral rolls.
She informed that Kakching district currently has 1,19,260 registered electors spread across four Assembly Constituencies—36-Wabagai, 37-Kakching, 38-Hiyanglam, and 39-Sugnu. The district has 143 polling stations, with 143 Booth Level Officers (BLOs) and 17 BLO Supervisors deployed to carry out the revision process.
According to the DEO, training programmes, printing of materials, and other preparatory activities were completed between May 20 and May 29, 2026. House-to-house visits by BLOs began on May 30 and will continue until June 28, 2026. Rationalisation of polling stations will also be undertaken and completed by June 28.
She further stated that the draft electoral roll will be published on July 5, 2026. The period for filing claims and objections will remain open from July 5 to August 4, while the disposal of claims and objections will be carried out between July 5 and September 2. The final electoral roll is scheduled to be published on September 6, 2026.
Highlighting voter assistance measures, Angeline Renita R informed that a dedicated Electoral Helpdesk has been set up at Room No. A-43 of the Deputy Commissioner's Office Complex, Kakching.
