Following clashes between students and security forces during a protest march to Raj Bhavan, Manipur Governor Lakshman Prasad Acharya has departed Imphal for Guwahati. The protests, which resulted in over 55 injuries, were sparked by demands for the removal of the state's Director General of Police and security advisor, accused of failing to manage escalating ethnic violence. In response to the unrest, Manipur University has postponed all examinations until further notice, and security measures have been heightened in the region, with curfews and internet suspensions in place. Chief Minister N. Biren Singh has engaged with student representatives, assuring them that their concerns will be addressed. The situation remains tense but has calmed with no fresh reports of violence on the following day.
