The Indian Interior Minister, Amit Shah, held a meeting on Wednesday with community leaders and security forces in Manipur to address the growing violence in the state. Over 80 people have been killed recently amid unrest among the 33 tribes predominately made up of Kukis and Nagas, who are predominantly Christian and largely opposed to the inclusion of the Meitei ethnic group on a list of disadvantaged tribes. This status affords the majority Hindu community access to education and government jobs reserved for disadvantaged groups in India. The court observation that led to the unrest has sparked inter-community clashes. Shah aims to find a solution to the ethnic violence and assess the security situation in the border city with Myanmar.

Manipur is not a stranger to clashes between communities and separatist movements, and internet services remain suspended with security forces patrolling the streets. The violence and unrest among civilians have been attributed to insurgent groups by the regional government, but the Chief of Defence Staff of the Indian Armed Forces has denied the claims. He attributes the situation primarily to an interethnic clash between two groups.

As stated in the article by EFE, no specific company was mentioned in relation to the violence in Manipur.

The article mentions Indian Interior Minister Amit Shah, who is responsible for the interior security of the country and its policy formulation related to these matters. Currently, he is attempting to address ongoing ethnic violence in the Manipur region.

Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) student, Darshan Solanki, who committed suicide in 2023, had informed his mother about caste-based discrimination on the institute’s campus, according to a chargesheet filed by police. The document reveals that Solanki’s mother told police that during telephonic conversations, he disclosed that his fellow students’ behaviour changed when they discovered his caste. Arman Khatri, a fellow student who was arrested for allegedly abetting the suicide, was named in the chargesheet. Solanki, who was studying B-Tech Chemical, allegedly jumped from the seventh floor of a hostel building on IITB campus in suburban Powai on February 12, 2023, following the end of term examinations.

The Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) is a premier engineering institution in Mumbai, India, with a reputation for academic excellence. The institute is renowned for its rigorous and challenging curriculum, which prepares students for leadership roles in the fields of science, engineering and management.

Darshan Solanki was a bright first-year student of B-Tech Chemical at IITB who tragically took his own life in February 2023. The 19-year-old had reportedly informed his mother about caste-based discrimination on the institute’s campus, which is a matter of concern for the authorities.
