Over 50,000 left homeless in Indian ethnic clashes FMTNews FMTWorld

Tribal groups have fiercely opposed the Meitei community being given Scheduled Tribe status which allows additional benefits.

NEW DELHI: More than 50,000 people have been left homeless following the recent ethnic clashes in India’s northeastern Manipur state. “Altogether 50,698 people displaced by the ethnic violence are currently sheltered at 349 relief camps,” according to a statement quoting state information minister RK Ranjan.

The conflict between the Meitei community, which has a thin majority in the state bordering Myanmar, and the tribal communities, including Naga and Kuki, killed more than 70 people last month.The federal home ministry on Saturday said a “peace committee” headed by Manipur governor Anusuiya Uikey has been formed to restore calm in the state.

The Scheduled Tribe status would give the Meiteis additional benefits in government jobs, education and access to forest lands where tribal groups are dominant.
