Renewed Rally Against Arbitrary Arrests: Our Voices Will Not Be Silenced
The Kuki Women Organisation for Human Rights (KWOHR) hereby announces a Public Mass Rally to be held on 18th June 2025 in Lamka (Churachandpur), Manipur, in continued protest against the arbitrary arrests of Kuki-Zo individuals by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
This decision follows a collective meeting held on 11th June 2025, convened by Kuki Inpi Churachandpur, in collaboration with all major Kuki Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), in response to the persistent and targeted crackdown on Kuki civilians.
On 31st May 2025, KWOHR, along with women's organisations across several districts, organised a mass sit-in protest and submitted a memorandum to the Hon'ble Union Home Minister, demanding an end to this discriminatory and unjust campaign of arrests. However, in a shocking display of disregard, two more Kuki-Zo men were arrested the very next day — without due process and under questionable circumstances. To date, there has been no official response to our demands.
WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED
This upcoming rally is a reaffirmation of our stand:
We will continue to protest, continue to march, and continue to speak out — until our voices are heard and our rightful demands are met.
RALLY DETAILS:
📅 Date: 18th June 2025 (Wednesday)
⏰ Gathering Time: 10:30 AM
⏱ Program Start: 11:00 AM
📍Venue: Starting from Koite Playground, Lamka
🚩 March To: Mini Secretariat, Tuibong
📜 Memorandum Submission: Addressed to the Union Home Minister
🗣 Organised By: Kuki Women Organisation for Human Rights (KWOHR)
🤝 In Collaboration With: Kuki Inpi Churachandpur & Kuki10:30 AM CSOs
We call upon all sections of society — the media, youth, students, civil society, village leaders, and the public — to stand in solidarity with us. Let this rally be a testament to the resilience and dignity of Kuki women, and a message to the world that we will not rest until justice is served.
Justice for Kuki-Zo people is not negotiable
