For the first time since May 2023 when Manipur was engulfed by ethnic violence, the Chief Minister of the state interacted with IDPs of Meitei and Kuki-Zo communities together.
Khemchand first visited a relief camp housing Meiteis on the Jiribam Higher Secondary School campus. He told the inmates that everyone must work towards removing the trust deficit.
Notably, security agencies on the ground in Manipur had earlier proposed the closure of seven out of 14 existing camps situated close to Meitei-inhabited areas in the Valley, the sources said.
There is speculation that the Meitei community plans to cross the buffer zone for the 'Ching Kaba' (annual mountain climbing cultural event) at Thangting or Thangjing Hills in April.
