It's noteworthy that Manipur's Statehood Day coincides with ongoing tensions due to ethnic violence between Meiteis and Kukis in the state. The first day of the 48-hour complete shutdown called by a Joint Action Committee (JAC) against the killing of a 26-year-old village volunteer on January 17 led to disruptions in normal life across Manipur.
