Kuki students' body enforces non-cooperation with CRPF

Guwahati: The influential Kuki Students’ Organization (KSO) on Tuesday declared “non-cooperation” with CRPF and demanded their confinement to designated camps until they issue an apology for the killing of 10 ‘village volunteers’ in Jiribam district on Monday.

The KSO proclamation emerges as a direct response to Monday’s counter-offensive operation by Crpf in conjunction with Manipur Police in Jiribam, resulting in the elimination of 10 individuals. While Manipur Police labelled them as “militants,” Kuki-Zo hill communities staunchly refute this designation, asserting they were 'village volunteers' serving their communities.

Addressing the KSO directive, Manipur IGP (AP-OPS) IK Muivah emphasized that police and security forces operate under governmental mandate and leadership of their respective forces.
