WHEN two passenger buses and five light vehicles carrying 125 travellers rolled out of Imphal today, they carried far more than human cargo along the highway to Guwahati. For nearly three full years, the essential road link passing through Dimapur had remained dormant, severed by the bitter violence and deep communal divisions that engulfed the region. Today's journey through Kangpokpi and Senapati marks a quiet yet momentous turning point in the government’s ongoing effort to restore public life and repair broken bonds. Road transport is often seen merely as a practical matter of trade and daily travel, but in a divided land, a open hig…

Jairam Ramesh Flags Supreme Court Shift on Labour Rights

NEW DELHI, August 22, 2026: Congress leader Jairam Ramesh has criticised the Supreme Court’s recent judgment in State of Uttar Pradesh v. Jai Bir Singh , expressing concern that its reformulation of the long-standing “Triple Test” for determining what constitutes an “industry” could create uncertainty over workers’ labour protections. In a statement, Ramesh said the issue had assumed greater significance against the backdrop of the Modi government’s Industrial Relations Code, 2020, which he alleged had weakened important safeguards for workers. A five-judge majority of the Supreme Court on August 20, 2026, “hypothesised” a reformulation of the …

Why Manipur’s Drive Targets the Kuki-Zo

THE growing push to implement a National Register of Citizens in Manipur prior to the census carries deep, dangerous implications that threaten to marginalise the Kuki-Zo community. Under the guise of identifying illegal immigrants, this administrative drive increasingly resembles a targeted policy aimed at disenfranchising tribal populations who have inhabited these hills for generations. The core of this issue lies in a complete disregard for unique tribal history and political development. Historically, the tribal hill regions were never under the direct rule of Meitei kings; they governed themselves independently through an ancient, self…
