Kuki man killed in Manipur; shutdown paralyses Imphal Valley
A Kuki activist was shot dead in Manipur, prompting the Kuki community to call a 24‑hour shutdown across Kangpokpi district starting Tuesday night. The curfew, intended to convey collective grief and demand accountability, has effectively halted movement and commerce throughout the Imphal Valley. Authorities are facing pressure to investigate the killing and restore normalcy in the region.
