REBUTTAL & CONDEMNATION FOR MALIGNING OUR DECEASED DAUGHTER.

To,
The "BEHIND THE TRUTH"

I, Smt Lhingnei Haokip, mother of (L) Nengtinlhing Haokip, who passed away on the 11th of January 2026 after prolonged post traumatic treatment at Apollo Hospital in Guwahati would like to pray and beg to all 'content creators in social media/ platforms or civil society organizations to spare our family by maligning our daughter's reputation again and again.

My daughter, (L) Nengtinlhing Haokip was a victim of abject hatred and the height of disrespecting a woman in a society. She bored the shame and disrobed dignity of a woman which I, as a mother cannot fathom for any other mother cutting across all civilized societies in the country in general and in our region in particular.

I earnestly beg to all not to repeat such unfounded allegations against our daughter who had not found justice till her death but rather we all should stand against such people, perpetrators from ever being part of our society. I, and my family would not press defamation charge to the "Behind the Truth" this time out of decency but to pray for fair and just content information for the public.

Sincerely yours,

Lhingnei Haokip,
Mother of Late Nengtinlhing Haokip

From the Field to the Heart: Lessons in Football | Khallai FC

As a coach, my belief in football has been shaped by real experiences—by moments of hope, struggle, and resilience on and off the field.

With the U-18 (L) KNMT team, we fought our way to the final of the Nancy Memorial Tournament at Bungmual Field. The team earned that place through discipline, teamwork, and sacrifice. Unfortunately, due to the civil war that broke out in Manipur, we were forced to withdraw from the final. It was a painful moment, not because of defeat, but because circumstances beyond football stopped us. In the end, the cash prizes for first and second place were equally shared with The Shepherd's FA. That experience taught me that football is not only about winning trophies—it is also about dignity, unity, and standing strong even when things are taken out of our control.

With the Thangkhal Elite Force, I led the team in the CVDF Tournament, where we reached the semi-finals. That journey showed how far commitment, tactical discipline, and trust in each other can take a team, even when the competition is tough and every match feels like a final.

Earlier, with the U-17 (L) KNMT team, we reached the quarter-finals at Tangnuam Playground. Though we didn't go further, it was a crucial learning stage—proof that growth, experience, and patience are essential parts of building a strong future.

From all these journeys, one truth stands clear: progress in football is never accidental. It comes from consistency, unity, and the courage to keep moving forward after setbacks.

Khallai FC, I share these experiences not to speak of the past, but to remind you of what is possible. Believe in the process, respect the game, trust your teammates, and never lose heart—because when a team stands together, results will always follow in time. 💪⚽

KHRC Responds to Arambai Tenggol Chief Korou Nganba on NRC

PRESS RELEASE
Dated: 11 January, 2026

KHRC Responds to Arambai Tenggol Chief Korou Nganba on NRC, Illegal Immigrants, and Peace

We, the Kuki Human Rights Council, strongly reject any claims or attempts by the Meitei community to exert authority over the Kuki community and its territory. The Meitei and Kuki communities have been separated since May 3, 2023, and the chapter of coexistence between Kuki and Meitei community has closed.

Regarding the National Register of Citizens (NRC) and illegal immigrants, we state that if the Meitei community wants NRC, they can pursue it in their own territory; we will not oppose. But for the Kuki territory, the decision on NRC will be made by the people, and it's none of your business. The Kuki demand for state or union territory is not only to protect the people, land, and rights but also to prevent illegal immigrants, foreigners, and refugees from outside.

The Kuki-Meitei conflict is not related to NRC, illegal immigrants and poppy cultivation, it's about land, identity and rights. The land and people are totally separated, this is witnessed by the centre and the world. We, the Kuki community, desire peace between Kuki and Meitei community, but not coexistence. We emphasize that without separate administration, there can be no peace. This is the only path forward.

Manipur Hills: Whose land is it anyway?

The hills of Manipur have been the home of the Naga and Kuki-Zo tribes since time immemorial.  Nobody knows exactly when the Nagas or the Kukis settled here.  Nobody fell down from heaven either and each has their histories of migration which are old. Both communities have legends and folktales from these hills and they have been living side by side for uncountable generations. The Royal Chronicles of Manipur records Kukis in 33AD. Even Prof. Gangmumei Kamei said that some Kukis have been in Manipur since many centuries ago. However, sadly some sections of Nagas delight in calling Kukis as Refugees without even knowing what a refugee mean. The Kukis never questioned the indigeneity of Nagas because nobody exact knows when human settlement started in these hills, or do the Nagas have written records? Infact, let the uninformed be aware that anyone in India before 15 August 1947 is an indian Citizen!

The Manipur Rajas claimed suzerain power over these tribes though the Nagas and Kukis were ruled independently by their own Chiefs or Village republics. This claim of Meiteis that the entire Manipur Kingdom belonged to their Kings and therefore cannot be broken, and the counter argument by Kukis and Nagas that it is their ancestral land(meaning they have the right to Political Autonomy) is the crux of Manipur's ethnic tensions.

Since the Manipur Nagas were the earliest among tribals in Manipur to write History they often wrote as if Mc Cullough planted Kukis in the 1860s in their territories, implying Kukis as recent settlers to the hills. In reality, McCulloch never planted Kukis amongst Nagas in what later became known as districts of Ukhrul, Tamenlong, etc. Infact, Kukis were mostly planted from different parts of these hills into the present Churachandpur area to counter the Lushai and Chin raids. McCulloch's story goes this way: With the establishment of the office of Political Agent in Manipur in 1835, Manipur's southern frontier's problems, especially that relating to the Kamhau-Sukte of Chin Hills in Burma and Lushais came to the attention of the British. It was only after the arrival of Colonel William McCulloch in Manipur in 1844 as political agent that an effort was made to establish peace in the region. He gave a large sum of money from his pocket and put some of them in the service of the state. McCulloch, with the help of Rajah Nur Singh, undertook the settlement of the Khongsais, as the Kukis were known in Manipur. Large tracts were made available to them for cultivation. Some of them were recruited as irregulars; arms were freely supplied to them and these settlements came to be known as 'sepoy villages'.  In his memorandum on the duties of the political Agent of Manipur dated 8 July 1861, McCulloch mentioned: "Beyond the Manipur boundary are the Soote and Loosai tribes. These are both powerful and dangerous, but at present they profess friendship and I encourage them to come and go through; if it were possible the Soote tribe should be attacked. In connection with these people, and as a protection to the south of the valley, the Rajah and I have established in the south villages of Kookies, to whom are given arms and whom we call sepoy villages. They are to be unrestricted in their cultivation and move about and do mischief. These sepoy villages are not quite settled, but by care they might be brought to a proper state of usefulness."

The above statement makes it very clear where Kukis were planted. A simple understanding of the maps will make it very clear from which side the danger of Lushais and Chins came from. British had no need to plant Kukis amidst Nagas in Manipur as Nagas were never a threat to the British.

Moreover, many Nagas of Manipur assume that just because the district headquarter they occupy belong to the Nagas, the entire district belongs to them. We should be able to go beyond and see history before 1919. The hills of Manipur were opened for British administration only after the Kukis were defeated in the Kuki Uprising 1917-1919. The Kukis would not have defended their land for almost 3 years if it did not belong to them too. Infact, we can see as to who actually were more deeply associated with the land. The British had to spend a whopping Rs.28 lakhs in those days to suppress the Kukis. After the defeat of Kukis, subdivisions were created. Robert Reid writes that, "At an open Durbar held at the Palace in Imphal on 16 October, 1919, by the Chief Commissioner, Sir Nicholas Beaton Bell, the new proposals were proclaimed. For the better administration of the hills the areas was divided into four sub-divisions, one with headquarters at Imphal and three outside, viz., for the south west area, inhabited by Kukis, with headquarters at Churachandpur; for the North-West area, inhabited by Kukis, Kabuis Nagas and Kacha Nagas with headquarters at Tamenglong; and for the north-east area inhabited by Tangkhul Nagas and Kukis, with headquarters at Ukhrul."
        The creation of the Sub-Division in the land where they held sway was actually very shameful for the Kukis.
William Shaw writes that, "The Thadous believe that they are destined to be rulers of their earth and not to be submissive to any one and so they are sometimes carried away  by their ambitions and swayed by this belief in their destiny into ill considered action, a process which culminated in the Kuki Rebellion of 1918-1919. They do not consider themselves beaten yet and still brood over the future ahead of them which to their sorrow is not developing as fast as they would like. In fact by the establishment of three subdivisions in the hills of Manipur state, their prestige among other hill tribes has been much shaken. The establishment of British rule in the area where they ruled for ages was a matter of great shame for the Kukis and was a loss of prestige in the eyes of other hill tribes."


      From 1 January 1930, a rearrangement of the administration of the Manipur hill areas was tried. The subdivisions constituted in 1919 were abolished, the outlying sub-divisional headquarters being done away with, and the whole hill areas was placed immediately under the President with two sub-divisional officers to assist him, one being in charge of the South and one of the North. In October, 1932, after the uprising under Jadonang, the North-West of Tamenglong Sub-division was re-opened and from 1 May, 1933, a new arrangement was made whereby the hills were divided into three sub-divisions: Sadar, Ukhrul and Tamenglong. 


     One thing we have to understand from the creation of sub-divisions is that, just because the sub-divisional headquarters was put in a Naga village doesn't mean the entire sub-division belonged to them. Similarly, even if the sub-divisional headqauarter was put in a Kuki village, it would not belong exclusively to Kukis. Any exclusive mentality over land is wrong especially in areas where different communities live contiguously. For example, in Kangpokpi today,  just because the headquarter belongs to Kukis, it wouldn't be right to say that the entire district belongs to Kukis alone. Moreover, in Manipur, it's common sense that the British would prefer to keep the sub-divisional headquarters in Naga villages instead of a Kuki villages right after an uprising! Does that mean that all the land will automatically go to the Nagas? Not at all! Any exclusive mentality over land is wrong; boundaries are men-made but age old relations between neighbouring communities are 'primordial' and such relations have to be nurtured in a complimentary way by all.

When Naga movement started brewing in Manipur in late 1950s, there was a systematic plan to dislodge Kukis from the districts of Ukhrul. Some of these people fled to Burma. However, the Khawdawmi operations of the 60s in Burma compelled those Kukis to return to India and the GOI sheltered them as people needing refuge. This issue has been blown out of proportion as if no Tangkhul from Somra Tract has migrated to India. Let the Tangkhuls and the entire Manipur Nagas be aware that, wether we like it or not, our destinies are entertwined and any political arrangement to safeguard both communities from the Meiteis will be difficult unless we tribals join hands. Creating false narratives will not serve anyone's interest and unless we wake up to the need for tribal solidarity, there mighg be no bus again to take us beyond the final frontiers!

Justice for Kuki-Zo Women: Memorandum to PM on Manipur Crisis

The Hon’ble Prime Minister of India
New Delhi

Subject: Memorandum Seeking Immediate Intervention and Justice for Kuki-Zo Women Victims of Sexual Violence, Killings, and Impunity in Manipur

Hon’ble Sir,

The Kuki Women Organisation for Human Rights (KWOHR) and Indegenous Tribal Leaders Forum (ITLF) Women Wing respectfully submits this memorandum to draw your urgent attention to the systematic sexual violence, brutal killings, and grave human rights violations committed against Kuki-Zo women during the Manipur crisis, and the continued failure of the State to ensure justice, accountability, and protection.

A team from the Kuki Women Organisation for Human Rights (KWOHR) and the ITLF Women Wing submitted a memorandum to the Deputy Commissioner, Churachandpur, during today’s sit-in protest against sexual violence and the killing of Kuki-Zo women in the ongoing Manipur crisis.

We place before you with deep anguish the case of Nengtinlhing Haokip (20 years), a resident of Chassad Avenue, who was abducted on 15th May 2023 in Imphal, brutally assaulted, gang raped, and left for dead. Despite the registration of a Zero FIR and the transfer of the case to the CBI in July 2023, no arrest has been made to date. After enduring prolonged physical suffering, severe psychological trauma, and repeated medical procedures for over two years, she succumbed to her injuries on 11th January 2026. She waited for justice until her last breath. The nation failed her.

Nengtinlhing Haokip’s death is not an isolated tragedy. It represents a pattern of targeted, gendered, and communal violence against Kuki-Zo women, marked by abduction, rape, lynching, burning alive, and extrajudicial killings carried out with near-total impunity.

Pattern of Atrocities Against Kuki-Zo Women

From May 2023 to November 2024, at least 29 Kuki-Zo women were brutally killed across Manipur. Victims include young women, elderly women, and even a mentally challenged woman. Forms of violence included mob lynching, hacking to death, shootings, abduction, sexual violence, and burning alive.

Among the most heinous crimes were the cases of Florence Nengpichong Hangshing (27) and Olivia Lhingneithem Chongloi (23) of Khopibung, Sader Hills, who were raped and murdered on 4 May 2023.

Further, two Kuki-Zo women were stripped naked, paraded, and gangraped in broad daylight on 4 May 2023 at L. Phainom Village, Kangpokpi District, an act that shocked the conscience of humanity and remains emblematic of the extreme vulnerability of minority women during the conflict.

A non-exhaustive list of victims is attached as Annexure–I for your kind perusal.

Complete Failure of Justice Delivery

Despite the seriousness, scale, and documentation of these crimes:

Not a single perpetrator has been booked, arrested, or prosecuted in these cases to date

Investigations remain delayed, opaque, and ineffective

Survivors and families have been denied justice, rehabilitation, and dignity

Perpetrators continue to enjoy complete impunity

This continued inaction amounts to a grave constitutional failure and violates India’s obligations under domestic law and international human rights conventions, including protections against sexual violence and crimes against humanity.

Our Demands

In light of the above, KWOHR and ITLF Women Wing humbly but firmly demands:

1. Immediate booking, arrest, and prosecution of all perpetrators involved in the sexual violence, killings, and abductions of Kuki-Zo women

2. Time-bound, transparent, and accountable investigations, including strict monitoring of the CBI and other agencies

3. Independent judicial oversight of all cases of sexual violence and killings arising from the Manipur conflict

4. Official recognition of sexual violence against Kuki-Zo women as crimes against humanity

5. Adequate compensation, long-term rehabilitation, and comprehensive mental health care for survivors and affected families

6. Protection of witnesses, survivors, and human rights defenders

Appeal for Immediate Intervention

Hon’ble Sir, justice delayed has now become justice denied—and justice denied has claimed lives. The continued silence and inaction have emboldened perpetrators and deepened the suffering of victims’ families.

We earnestly appeal for your personal and immediate intervention to restore faith in the rule of law, uphold constitutional values, and ensure that Kuki-Zo women are not abandoned to violence and erasure. We trust that your office will act with the urgency, seriousness, and moral responsibility that this grave situation demands.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Enclosed: List of Kuki-Zo Women Victims of Sexual Violence and Killings during the Manipur Crisis since May 3rd 2023.

Yours Sincerely

    (NGAINEIKIM)                       (VARY VAHBOI BAITE)

WKZIC: Petition–cum–Memorandum

Ref. No.72/WKZIC-GHQ/(Memo)/2023-26, Date: 22/01/2026

Petition–cum–Memorandum: Invoking Articles 21, 14, 15, 19, 244, 355 with Lifeline Routes and UT Consideration for Kuki-Zo Community

To,

Her Excellency,
The President of India
Rashtrapati Bhavan
New Delhi

Through:

The Hon'ble Prime Minister of India
South Block
New Delhi.

PETITION–CUM–MEMORANDUM
(Invoking Constitutional Responsibility of the 'Union of India' under Articles 21, 14, 15, 19, 244, and 355 of the Constitution in regards to BLOCKADE of KUKI-ZO LIFELINE ROUTES)

MOST RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH

That the Petitioners submit this Petition–cum–Memorandum to invoke the constitutional conscience and responsibility of the Union of India, in view of the continued and demonstrable failure of the State Government of Manipur to secure the fundamental rights of the minority Kuki-Zo community, as guaranteed under the Constitution of India.

That Article 21 of the Constitution of India imposes a positive, non-derogable obligation upon the State to protect the life and personal liberty of every citizen. The prolonged breakdown of law and order, the foreseeable nature of the violence, and the continued inability of the State Government of Manipur to provide effective and impartial protection to Kuki-Zo civilians constitute a grave breach of this constitutional duty, attracting State liability under public law and giving rise to a continuing constitutional wrong.

That the guarantee of equality before law and equal protection of laws under Article 14, read with Articles 15(1) and 15(2), stands gravely violated. The pattern of unequal deployment of security forces, selective enforcement of law, and differential access to relief, rehabilitation, and justice has rendered the Kuki-Zo community disproportionately vulnerable. Such unequal protection, whether by commission or omission, is constitutionally impermissible.

That the Kuki-Zo people constitute a numerically and politically vulnerable ethnic and tribal minority within the State of Manipur. The constitutional scheme—particularly Articles 19, 21, and 244, together with the protective principles underlying the Fifth and Sixth Schedules—imposes a heightened fiduciary responsibility upon the State to prevent dispossession, targeted violence, and demographic coercion against tribal communities. The destruction of villages, displacement from ancestral lands, and continued insecurity in tribal areas reflect a serious breach of this constitutional trust.

That the continued obstruction, insecurity, or de facto closure of essential road and transport corridors connecting Kuki-Zo inhabited areas has resulted in denial of access to food, medicines, healthcare, education, livelihoods, and humanitarian assistance, in violation of Articles 19(1)(d), 19(1)(e), and 21. The State's failure to ensure safe and continuous access to such lifeline routes constitutes unconstitutional deprivation of the right to life with dignity.

That under Article 355 of the Constitution, it is the duty of the Union Government to protect every State against external aggression and internal disturbance, and to ensure that the government of every State is carried on in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution. In the present situation, where the State of Manipur has repeatedly failed to ensure the protection, security, and humanitarian needs of the minority Kuki-Zo community, Article 355 empowers the Union to take necessary and proportionate measures to restore constitutional governance and protect fundamental rights, without prejudice to the sovereignty of the State.

That despite prolonged constitutional engagement and representations, the State has been unable to secure equal protection, governance, and dignified living conditions for the Kuki-Zo community. Such repeated failure makes the administrative arrangement structurally incapable of fulfilling constitutional obligations.

That where a State framework fails to secure fundamental rights, the Constitution provides alternative mechanisms, including consideration of a Union Territory with Legislature under Articles 2, 3, and 239A, to ensure governance consistent with equality, dignity, and effective protection of minority communities. The long-standing constitutional demand of the Kuki-Zo people for dignified coexistence as fellow citizens of India may thus be assessed as a constitutional remedy in the public interest.

That the Union of India bears the ultimate constitutional responsibility to ensure that governance in every part of the territory of India is carried on in accordance with the Constitution. Your Excellency, as the constitutional head and guardian of the Constitution, is vested with the authority and duty to ensure that no community is abandoned to insecurity, marginalization, or denial of equal protection of laws.                                                                                                                                                                   

GROUNDS
* The failure to protect life, liberty, and dignity violates Articles 14, 15, 19, 21, and 244 of the Constitution;

* Obstruction or insecurity of lifeline routes constitutes unconstitutional deprivation of the right to life with dignity;

* The State's failure engages the Union's responsibility under Article 355 to ensure constitutional governance and protection against internal disturbances;

* Denial of equal protection and humanitarian access to a vulnerable minority constitutes a continuing constitutional wrong;

* Where existing arrangements fail, constitutional reorganisation under Articles 2, 3, and 239A is a recognised and permissible mechanism to secure equality, dignity, and governance;

* The Union of India is constitutionally obligated to ensure governance consistent with the basic structure, rule of law, and human dignity.

PRAYER
In view of the facts and grounds stated hereinabove, it is most respectfully prayed that Your Excellency may be pleased to:

• Cause immediate constitutional intervention to secure the life, liberty, equality, and dignity of the minority Kuki-Zo community in Manipur;

• Direct the Union Government to ensure the immediate, safe, and continuous opening of all essential Kuki-Zo lifeline routes, under adequate and neutral central security protection;

• Ensure that no obstruction—formal or informal—impedes the movement of civilians, essential commodities, medical supplies, and humanitarian assistance;

• Direct deployment of adequate, impartial central forces to guarantee equal protection of laws and secure humanitarian access;

• Ensure independent, impartial, and time-bound investigations into acts of violence, destruction, displacement, and obstruction of essential routes;

• Direct comprehensive relief, rehabilitation, and restitution, including safe return, reconstruction of habitations, and livelihood security;

• Invoke Article 355 powers, in a proportionate manner, to ensure that governance in Manipur is carried on in accordance with the Constitution, restoring public confidence and constitutional order;

In the alternative, and should the existing constitutional arrangement continue to fail in securing equal protection and dignified existence, be pleased to cause consideration, in accordance with the Constitution, of the creation of a Union Territory with Legislature ("Kukiland"), as a remedial measure to guarantee effective governance, equality, and dignity for the Kuki-Zo people.

"AND FOR THIS ACT OF CONSTITUTIONAL JUSTICE, HUMANITARIAN PROTECTION, AND NATIONAL INTEGRITY, THE PETITIONERS AS IN DUTY BOUND SHALL EVER PRAY".

Thadou Inpi Manipur Condemns Churachandpur Killing

THADOU INPI MANIPUR

Date: 22-Jan-2026
MEDIA RELEASE
Imphal, the 22nd January, 2026

Thadou Inpi Manipur Condemns Churachandpur Killing, Kuki Terrorist Act in the Strongest Terms

Thadou Inpi Manipur vehemently condemns the abduction and alleged killing of Mr. Meitei Mayanglambam (tribal name Ginminthang), husband of Mrs. Chingnu Haokip, by armed Kuki terrorists from Tuibong on the evening of January 21, 2026.

This barbaric and premeditated attack occurred despite a significant presence of security forces and prior approval from the militant group Kuki National Organisation (SoO group operating in the area) and Tuibong DHQ authorities for Mr. Mayanglambam's visit, highlighting the reckless lawlessness and brutal extremism that continue to threaten the region.

This incident exposes the ever-present danger of Kuki radicalism. terrorism and violent extremism, which jeopardizes the lives of innocent citizens and undermines the fragile peace and security of Manipur. It is not merely an attack on an individual, but a direct assault on justice, public safety, and communal harmony.

Thadou Inpi Manipur demands immediate and decisive action from the authorities: a thorough investigation, swift identification and arrest of the perpetrators, and strict punishment under the law. The government must also take urgent preventive measures to safeguard law-abiding citizens and prevent recurrence of such terrorist acts.

We stand in solidarity with the victims' family and call upon all communities to unite against terrorism, extremism, and radical violence, upholding the values of justice, peace, and communal harmony.

Meitei Man Killed After Crossing Buffer Zone in Henglep

A man from the Meitei community, identified as Mayanglambam Rishikanta of Kakching Khunou, was brutally killed on Monday (19 Jan) in the Henglep area after allegedly crossing a Kuki-controlled buffer zone. Sources said the victim, son of M. Tombi Singh, was attacked and killed by suspected UKNA militants.

Earlier reports also stated that on Tuesday evening, around 6:30 pm, another Meitei man, Mayanglambam (tribal name Ginminthang), husband of Chingnu Haokip, was abducted by armed miscreants from Tuibong in Churachandpur district. The attackers are suspected to be members of the UKNA. The couple were reportedly taken towards Natjang under Henglep Police Station, where the husband is believed to have been killed by the abductors.

According to sources, Mrs Chingnu Haokip had obtained prior permission from the Kuki National Organisation (KNO) and Tuibong DHQ authorities to allow her husband to visit her for a few days. The husband, who had been working in Nepal, had returned on leave and travelled with official approval. He is originally from Kakching Khunou.

However, the Kuki National Organisation (KNO) has issued a formal clarification on January 22, strongly denying any involvement in the incident. The organisation stated that it had no knowledge of any permission being granted to the deceased to visit the area and clarified that it was not connected to the kidnapping or killing. The KNO further asserted that under no circumstances would spouses from other communities be subjected to such acts.

The victim is reported to have been working in Nepal and had returned on leave. He originally hailed from Kakching Khunou. The incident has once again raised serious concerns over civilian safety and movement across buffer zones amid continuing tensions in the region.
