Security tightened as tensions flare in Manipur. This comes hours after Kuki volunteers allegedly took 20 people captive in Ukhrul, retaliating to an 'unprovoked firing incident'.
The jawan was on leave and passing by when the incident happened. Manipur Police termed the episode a 'clash' between the two communities, the Kukis and the Nagas, and also said it will be resolved soon.
This is the second such incident between Nagas and Kukis in two months. Purported video of incident is on social media, showing armed men setting houses and vehicles on fire.

The VFX effects are what you’d expect from a run-of-the-mill video game or a mediocre fantasy show. But a film that supposedly cost thousands of crores? The audience deserves more.
The central bank has rolled out some of its toughest measures in more than a decade to curb speculation & support the currency, which has been setting successive record lows this year.
Three-day conflict between India and Pakistan underscored the growing importance of information warfare as a critical domain alongside conventional military operations.
It’s easy to understand why the government can’t speak the hard truth. When this war ends, as all wars do, India’s interests will lie with both the winner and the loser.
