India: How is ethnic violence affecting ordinary citizens in Manipur? | 101 East Documentary

For more than two years, India’s northeastern state of Manipur has been beset by violence between two ethnic groups, the Meitei and the Kuki-Zo. With nearly 260 people killed and about 60,000 displaced, the Indian government has taken control of the state in a bid to restore order. In what has been described as a civil war, both sides accuse the other of committing atrocities. New Delhi vows to disarm the warring factions and restore peace to the region. 101 East examines how the ethnic conflict in Manipur is affecting the lives of ordinary citizens on both sides of the divide. #india #documentary #manipur #aljazeera #aljazeeraenglish #kukizo #meiteis
