The ethnic violence in Manipur, which began earlier in 2023, has resulted in considerable loss of life and property, as well as ongoing tensions between different community groups. The situation has called for extensive response measures from the state government, as well as interventions from local organizations aimed at reconciliation and rebuilding trust among the diverse populations in the region.
