Members of Kuki organisations in Churachandpur on Tuesday held rally carrying mock 'coffins' in remembrance of the deceased members of their community who died during unrest in Manipur.
The victims, Muhammad Daulat (30), M Sirajuddin (50), Muhammad Azad Khan (40), and Muhammad Hussain (22), were members of the Meiti Pangal community, residing in an area that had, until recently, remained unaffected by the ethnic conflict between Meiti and Kuki groups.
A bench of Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud and Justices PS Narasimha and Manoj Misra said that in the 72 years of its existence, the Supreme Court has never issued directions to the Indian Army on how to conduct military, security or rescue operations.
The Supreme Court on Monday cautioned the counsels representing the Meitei and Kuki groups to refrain from levelling allegations and using the court as a platform to escalate the volatile situation in Manipur.
