Panel formed to restore social amity in Manipur

The Indian government has created a peace committee in Manipur, led by Governor Anusuiya Uikey, to initiate a dialogue and restore peace between warring ethnic groups. The committee will include state ministers, MPs, and leaders from different parties and ethnic groups. The mandate of the committee is to facilitate peace-making processes, strengthen social cohesiveness and mutual understanding, and promote cordial communication between ethnic groups. The committee was formed after at least 105 people were killed and nearly 40,000 displaced in clashes between the Kukis and Meiteis communities.
