Violence in Manipur erupted on May 3 last year during an ATSU rally protesting against the inclusion of the Meitei community in the Scheduled Tribe category. PM Modi recently stated in the Rajya Sabha that efforts to normalize the situation are ongoing, with more than 11,000 FIRs registered and over 500 arrests made.

PM Modi affirmed that incidents of violence are decreasing and that both central and state governments are engaging with all stakeholders to restore peace. He noted that schools, colleges, and other institutions are operating as normal.
