Imphal, Nov 18
The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on Monday strongly condemned the inhuman, brutal and merciless acts of killing women and children, after keeping them in captivity for days and asked the Central as well as state government to “sincerely” resolve the ongoing conflict at the earliest.
The RSS’s Manipur unit, in a statement said that it is unfortunate that 19 months old violence in Manipur starting from May 3 last year has remained unresolved.
“Due to the ongoing violence, innocent people have immensely suffered. Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Manipur strongly condemns inhuman, brutal and merciless acts of killing women and children after taking them in captivity,” the RSS said.
Sangh further said that the act is cowardly and is against the principles of humanity and co-existence.
“The central and state government should “sincerely” resolve the ongoing conflict at the earliest,” the RSS said.
In the widespread violence and attacks that took place on Saturday and Sunday, more than two dozen houses of ministers, MLAs and political leaders and offices of political parties were attacked and vandalised by mobs in several districts, especially in Imphal East and Imphal West districts. This followed the recovery of six dead bodies in Jiribam on November 15 and 16.
