What were the main reasons behind the violence in Manipur and was it pre-planned

Explore the facts related to the inquiry being conducted by CBI on whether the violence in Manipur was a pre-planned incident or not.
The violence in Manipur had multiple reasons, and the inquiry conducted by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) aimed to determine whether it was pre-planned or not. Here are some key points related to the inquiry:
  • Insurgency: Manipur has been affected by insurgency for many years, with various armed groups operating in the region.
  • Ethnic tensions: The state is diverse, with multiple ethnic groups, leading to inter-ethnic tensions and conflicts over land, resources, and political power.
  • Political instability: Frequent changes in governments and the failure to address the underlying issues contributed to the violence.
  • Lack of economic opportunities: The lack of significant economic development and unemployment among the youth created a fertile ground for discontent and violence.
The CBI inquiry aimed to investigate whether the violence was pre-planned or a spontaneous incident. It would include gathering evidence, analyzing intelligence inputs, interviewing witnesses, and examining the modus operandi of the perpetrators. The final report of the investigation would provide more substantial insights into the nature of the violence and its pre-planning.
