Imphal, August 7, 2025: Sixteen Thadou leaders who participated in a peace meeting with Meitei civil society organizations (CSOs) on Wednesday were reportedly placed under house arrest today at Hotel Classic, Imphal. The order is said to have come from the Home Ministry Affairs (HMA). The motive behind this sudden move remains unclear and is still awaiting official confirmation.
As the leaders were being escorted to the airport, a mob reportedly intercepted the convoy of Thadou Innpi Manipur (TIM) delegates. This shocking development prompted leaders of the Federation of Nationalist Civil Society Organisations (FNCC) and the Coordinating Committee on Manipur Integrity (CoCOMI) to rush to the location.

However, upon their arrival, they too were placed under house arrest by the authorities.
According to unverified sources, the TIM delegates are currently being held in an undisclosed location. Their exact condition and whereabouts are yet to be confirmed.

While The Morning Bell reported that Thadou Inpi Manipur delegates on Wednesday claimed they were unjustly detained at the hotel where they were staying and prevented from moving to a nearby venue,
the report quoted:
“Thadou delegates were forcibly confined at The Classic Hotel, Imphal. The Government of India, under President's Rule in Manipur, blocked their movement to a nearby venue for reasons that appear politically motivated. This restriction is a clear violation of the fundamental rights to life, liberty, and free movement, and suggests a disturbing attempt to appease extremist elements that oppose peace and indigenous unity in Manipur.”
This incident has sparked fresh concerns over the fragile state of peace-building efforts in Manipur and the security of community leaders engaged in dialogue.
The situation is still developing, and details are subject to verification.
