Manipur violence: BSF men to be deployed in village where 3 were killed
PTI, IMPHAL, AUG 20, 2023 : A Border Security
Force (BSF) team is likely to be posted in
Thawai Kuki village in Manipur's Ukhrul
district where three persons were killed by
armed men on Friday, sources said.
Security forces are combing the jungles of
the adjoining hills where the armed men
are believed to be hiding, they said.
The likely move to deploy a BSF team in
the village comes days after Chief Minister
N Biren Singh sought reports from
Churachandpur deputy commissioner and
SP about the open display of sophisticated
firearms by a group of people during an
Independence Day parade.
Sources also
added that around 60 companies of the BSF
are likely to be deployed in nine districts of
the state to assist the administration in
maintaining law and order. BSF (EC) ADG
Sonali Mishra along with four senior officers
had recently called on Governor Anusuiya
Uikey at Raj Bhavan and briefed her about
the prevailing security situation in the
northeastern state.
Meanwhile, more than
200 Meiteis who had crossed over to
neighbouring Myanmar to escape the ethnic
violence in Manipur and safely returned to
the state after more than three months were
provided food and medicines by the Army
and the civil administration. (
