Kuki Women Seek Probe, Justice in Manipur Violence

KUKI WOMEN ORGANISATION FOR HUMAN RIGHTS (KWOHR)

&

KUKI WOMEN UNION, GENERAL HEADQUARTERS (KWU GHQ)

Estd. 1993  |  "Together We Can"

KIM Secretariat, Manipur, India

Ref. No.: KWOHR-KWU/MEMO/PMO/2026/04

Date: 29th April, 2026

To,

Shri Narendra Modi

Hon'ble Prime Minister of India

Prime Minister's Office

South Block, Raisina Hill

New Delhi - 110011

Subject: Memorandum from the women of the Kuki-Zo community seeking urgent judicial intervention into the N. Biren Singh audio tape case and immediate action against the armed attack on Mulam and Songphel Kuki villages of 24th April 2026 — for the restoration of justice, truth and accountability in Manipur.

Hon'ble Prime Minister Sir,

We, the women of the Kuki-Zo community of Manipur, through the Kuki Women Organisation for Human Rights (KWOHR) and the Kuki Women Union, General Headquarters (KWU GHQ), most respectfully approach your kind office on two grave matters that strike at the very foundations of the rule of law, the dignity of human life, and the constitutional rights of the people we represent.

Sir, as mothers, wives, sisters and daughters, we have borne the heaviest cost of the violence that has engulfed Manipur since May 2023. We have buried our loved ones, sheltered the displaced, raised orphaned children and held our community together through nearly three years of suffering. The events of recent days have once again brought our State to the brink. It is with anguish, but also with abiding faith in the Constitution of India, that we now place these matters before you.

I.  THE N. BIREN SINGH AUDIO TAPE CASE

The leaked audio recordings, currently before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India and widely reported in the national press, contain statements attributed to the former Chief Minister of Manipur, Shri N. Biren Singh, that strongly suggest direct complicity of the highest political office of the State in the ethnic violence unleashed against the Kuki-Zo community. The disclosures raise the gravest possible questions of constitutional propriety, criminal accountability and abuse of public office.

Despite the seriousness of the matter, no concrete action has been taken to date. The continued silence is deeply demoralising for the women and children who have lost husbands, sons, fathers and homes, and it erodes the public's faith in the impartiality of the State.

We respectfully submit that the credibility of the Union Government's commitment to the rule of law in Manipur is now inseparable from the manner in which this case is pursued. A time-bound, independent and judicially supervised investigation is the bare minimum that the situation demands.

II.  THE ARMED ATTACK ON MULAM AND SONGPHEL VILLAGES, 24TH APRIL 2026

On 24th April 2026, the Kuki villages of Mulam and Songphel were subjected to a brutal and pre-meditated armed attack which resulted in the loss of innocent lives, grievous injuries and the destruction of homes. Once again, it is the women and children of these villages who have been left to mourn, to flee and to rebuild from the ashes.

The attack occurred notwithstanding the prolonged deployment of Central Armed Police Forces in the State and the existence of a buffer-zone arrangement intended to prevent precisely such incidents. It is not an isolated criminal act. It forms part of a continuing pattern of armed aggression against the Kuki-Zo people in which the perpetrators have repeatedly enjoyed effective impunity.

In response, a joint meeting convened by the Kuki Inpi Manipur (KIM) has resolved to organise a peaceful protest under the theme “Mass Rally for Justice, Truth and Accountability” on 29th April 2026 in the districts of Churachandpur, Kangpokpi, Tengnoupal and Chandel. We undertake this rally as a lawful, dignified and constitutionally protected expression of our community's grief and our demand for justice.

III.  PRAYERS BEFORE THE HON'BLE PRIME MINISTER

In the light of the foregoing, we most humbly and earnestly pray that your kind office may be pleased to:

Direct a time-bound investigation into the N. Biren Singh audio tape matter by an independent agency such as the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) under judicial supervision, with the report placed before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India within a fixed timeframe;

Ensure swift criminal prosecution of all persons, irrespective of position or political affiliation, who are found to have abetted, conspired in, financed or directed the ethnic violence against the Kuki-Zo community since May 2023;

Direct the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to take up the investigation of the armed attack on Mulam and Songphel villages on 24th April 2026, identify the perpetrators and the chain of command, and bring them to justice without delay;

Sanction immediate ex-gratia relief and rehabilitation to the families of those killed, to the injured, and to those whose homes have been destroyed in Mulam and Songphel villages, with special provision for the widows and orphans of the deceased, and direct the rebuilding of the affected villages under Central supervision;

Augment the deployment of Central Armed Police Forces in the foothill and buffer areas of the Kuki-Zo districts of Churachandpur, Kangpokpi, Tengnoupal and Chandel, with a clear mandate to prevent armed incursions and protect civilian life and property;

Initiate a structured political dialogue with the legitimate representatives of the Kuki-Zo people, including Kuki Inpi Manipur, the Kuki-Zo Council and the elected MLAs, to deliver a durable political solution that secures the life, land, identity and constitutional rights of the community;

Guarantee the safety and democratic space of all participants — particularly women — in the peaceful Mass Rally scheduled for 29th April 2026, and direct the State machinery to refrain from any obstruction of, or retaliatory action against, the rally and its organisers;

Make a public assurance to the people of Manipur, and to the Kuki-Zo women and children in particular, that the Union Government will not permit impunity for those who orchestrated the violence and that the rule of law will be restored without fear or favour.

Sir, the women of the Kuki-Zo community continue to repose our faith in the Constitution of India and in your leadership. We earnestly trust that the Union Government, under your stewardship, will rise to this moment and ensure that justice, truth and accountability are delivered — not as a matter of grace, but as the lawful right of every citizen of this nation.

We thank you for your kind attention and remain ever hopeful of a just and timely response from your good office.

With the highest regards,

Yours faithfully,

President President

Kuki Women Organisation for Human Rights (KWOHR) Kuki Women Union, General Headquarters (KWU GHQ)

CVDF Orders Halt to Unauthorized Activities in Zomi Areas

Lamka, April 28, 2026: The Central Village Defence Force (CVDF) has issued a press communiqué regulating unauthorised activities in Zomi operational areas, citing growing concerns over recent developments.

According to the statement, the CVDF has received credible reports about the circulation and sale of “Never Forget 3rd May” stickers by the ITLF Women Wing within Zomi areas to mark “3rd May Separation Day.”

The CVDF clarified that the Indigenous Tribal Leaders’ Forum (ITLF) has no presence or authority in Zomi operational areas and is not recognised under its jurisdiction. It further warned that any activity carried out in the name of ITLF would be treated as serving vested interests and seen as a direct challenge to established authority.

The organisation has directed that all such sales and distribution must stop immediately. It cautioned that failure to comply would invite strict action to maintain law and order. The CVDF also noted that the current situation remains tense and volatile.

In its advisory, the CVDF urged all individuals and groups to avoid any form of provocation that could lead to escalation or conflict on multiple fronts. It further called on the public to act with restraint and uphold peace, stability, mutual respect, and peaceful coexistence.

Pherzawl, April 28, 2026 (DIO): In a renewed effort to tackle substance abuse at the grassroots level, a series of Anti-Drug Club poster campaigns were conducted across key educational institutions in the district on April 27.

A similar programme was also organised at Parbung Higher Secondary School, highlighting the message “Say No to Drugs, Say Yes to Life.” Students displayed anti-drug posters at prominent locations across Lungthulien and Parbung villages to reach a wider audience.

The posters served as visual reminders of the dangers associated with substance abuse and encouraged collective community action. The initiative reflects a collaborative effort between educational institutions and the district administration, marking a proactive step towards building a drug-free environment in Pherzawl.

ZRO Rejects FoH Claims Over Kasom, Tronglaobi Attacks

Imphal, April 27, 2026: The Zomi Re-unification Organisation (ZRO) has strongly denied allegations linking it to recent attacks in Kasom and Tronglaobi, calling the claims “false and baseless.”

In a rejoinder issued on April 27, ZRO responded to reports quoting the Federation of Haomee (FoH) President, Sapamcha Jadumani, who had alleged that leaders of Kuki National Organisation (KNO) and Zomi Revolutionary Organisation (ZRO) were involved in armed aggression against indigenous communities in Manipur. The allegations also held them responsible for an ambush near TM Kasom and the attack at Tronglaobi.

ZRO categorically rejected these accusations, stating that it had no involvement in the incidents. The organisation described the claims as “concocted, factually incorrect, and unsupported by any verifiable evidence.”

The group further alleged that the statement by the FoH leader was part of a “calculated and malicious campaign” aimed at damaging the image and reputation of ZRO’s leadership. It also criticized the remarks as reflective of “moral bankruptcy” and said they were contributing to confusion within the Meitei community.

ZRO urged Sapamcha Jadumani to refrain from making what it termed as “emotive, provocative, and unsubstantiated statements” in the future. It emphasized the need to exercise freedom of expression responsibly, within the framework of the Indian Constitution and moral standards.

Kuki Inpi Warns of Militants Threat in Ukhrul District

Lamka, April 25, 2026: The Kuki Inpi Manipur (KIM) has raised serious concern over what it described as a coordinated build-up of Meitei and Tangkhul militant groups in Manipur’s Ukhrul district, posing a threat to Kuki-Zo civilians.

In a press release issued from its secretariat on April 25, KIM stated that it has received confirmed inputs about the presence of over 50 Meitei Arambai Tenggol militants stationed at Sikibung in Ukhrul district. These groups are reportedly operating in coordination with Tangkhul militant elements, indicating an organized and structured militant deployment with direct implications for civilian safety and public order.

According to the statement, several locations in Ukhrul district—including Sareikhong, T.M. Kasom, Leingangching, Sikibung, and Thoyee—are currently being used as bases for joint militant activities. KIM further alleged that an unauthorized NSCN-led Tangkhul militant camp continues to operate within this network without visible enforcement action, pointing to a lapse in maintaining law and order.

The organization also claimed that it has received inputs suggesting that a senior police officer in Manipur may have compromised operational integrity by sharing sensitive information about vulnerable Kuki villages, potentially enabling targeted attacks. KIM stated that if proven true, such actions would amount to a serious breach of official responsibility and weaken the credibility of the security system.

Highlighting the growing security concerns, KIM said the convergence of Meitei and Tangkhul militant elements across multiple locations, along with the lack of effective containment measures, reflects a deteriorating situation in Ukhrul district that requires immediate attention.

Kuki Inpi Manipur has urged the Government of India to take prompt and decisive action. It called for dismantling all militant camps, removing armed concentrations, initiating an independent inquiry into the alleged intelligence breach, and ensuring adequate protection for vulnerable civilian populations.

The organization stressed that the situation demands urgent intervention to restore order and uphold the rule of law.

CM Urges Peace Talks, Invites Stakeholders for Dialogue

Imphal, April 25, 2026: In an effort to ease the prevailing situation in the state, Chief Minister N. Biren Singh on Saturday held a series of meetings with representatives from various localities, calling for peace and urging all stakeholders to come together for dialogue.

Addressing media persons after the meetings at the Chief Minister’s Secretariat, the Chief Minister emphasized that there is no alternative to peace except through discussions. He stated that meaningful resolution can only be achieved when all parties sit together at the negotiating table.

Highlighting the impact of the ongoing unrest, he noted that the situation has caused significant hardships for daily wage earners and has disrupted the academic environment for children across the state. He stressed that the government alone cannot restore peace unless it is supported by the public and Civil Society Organisations (CSOs). Reiterating his appeal, he invited all stakeholders to participate in dialogue to find lasting solutions.

On the Tronglaobi incident, the Chief Minister informed that the State Cabinet has decided to provide government jobs to the parents of the children who lost their lives. He clarified that the decision was taken purely on humanitarian grounds and not in response to any demands from Joint Action Committees (JACs) or the affected families. He also assured that all efforts are being made to ensure that the culprits are apprehended at the earliest.

Speaking on the occasion, Home Minister Govindas Konthoujam stated that the government has so far exercised restraint and allowed democratic and non-violent protests. He noted that the Chief Minister had met multiple groups who arrived at the Secretariat following the public rally held earlier in the day.

The Home Minister further revealed that some individuals identifying themselves as members of the Coordinating Committee on Manipur Integrity (COCOMI) had submitted a memorandum containing seven questions. He added that the government had earlier invited COCOMI for discussions on their grievances, but the invitation was declined.

Responding to the concerns raised, he reiterated that safeguarding all indigenous communities remains a firm commitment of the state government. He asserted that the government will not tolerate any form of terrorism, including narco-terrorism and unlawful possession of arms and ammunition, which threaten public safety. He also noted that the Government of India has set a target to eliminate all forms of terrorism in the North East by 2029.

Regarding the Tronglaobi case, the Minister stated that the investigation has been handed over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), and a team led by an Inspector General has already visited the site.

On the issue of internally displaced persons (IDPs), he said that arrangements have been made for their return to their respective homes. However, the process has been delayed due to the prevailing situation and trust deficit among communities. He added that the Chief Minister has been visiting relief camps of displaced persons from both communities whenever possible.

The Minister also clarified that the State government cannot take a unilateral decision regarding the abrogation of the Suspension of Operation (SoO) agreement, as it involves the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), which plays a central role in the tripartite agreement.

The press conference, held at the Chief Minister’s Secretariat, was attended by Deputy Chief Minister Shri Losi Dikho, Tourism Minister, MLAs, and other officials.

Manipur Govt Rebuts Woman’s Claim on State Power Role

Imphal, April 25, 2026: The Government of Manipur, through the Office of the Public Relations Officer at the Chief Minister’s Secretariat, has issued a press rejoinder addressing what it termed as a “clear misrepresentation” of statements made during a recent meeting between the Chief Minister and representatives of agitators in Imphal.

According to the official statement, it came to the notice of the office that a woman identified as Smt. Thingbaijam Debala from Kshetrigao, Imphal East, while briefing media persons after meeting the Chief Minister at the Secretariat, claimed that the State government has no power and that control over the situation lies entirely with the Centre. The interaction reportedly took place in the backdrop of the ongoing agitation led by the Coordinating Committee on Manipur Integrity (COCOMI) in Imphal.

The rejoinder clarified that the woman’s brief remarks, which were published in Manipuri evening newspapers such as Kangla Pao and Paojel under different headlines, are in no way connected to the Chief Minister’s official meeting with representatives of agitators from various parts of Imphal. The government emphasized that the statements attributed to her do not reflect the discussions held during the meeting.

The Office further stated that her comments constitute a “clear-cut misrepresentation” of the facts conveyed by the Chief Minister during his interaction with the Meira Paibis. It also alleged that the intent behind such remarks appears to be aimed at sabotaging the government’s ongoing efforts to restore law and order and to promote peace initiatives in the state.

Highlighting the sensitivity of the current situation, the government urged media organizations to maintain the highest standards of journalistic ethics. It called upon all media houses to ensure that news reports are properly verified and thoroughly cross-checked before publication to prevent the spread of misinformation during this critical period.
