The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on Sunday condemned the violence in Manipur and appealed to the government, including local administration, police, military and the central agencies to take every possible step to immediately stop the unrest.
In a statement, the RSS made an appeal to ensure the seamless supply of relief materials among the displaced along with necessary actions to maintain peace and harmony.
It also appealed to the entire civil society, political groups of Manipur and common people to take every possible initiative to put an end to the present situation and also ensure safety of human life and permanent peace in the state of Manipur, it stated.
RSS stands with the displaced persons and other victims of the Manipur crisis numbering more than 50,000 during this period of terrible grief, it mentioned. There is no place for violence and hatred in a democratic setup, and also believes that the solution of any problem is possible only through mutual dialogue and expression of brotherhood in a peaceful atmosphere, it added.
It further appealed to everyone to overcome the deficit of trust among each other which is the cause of the present crisis. “It requires comprehensive efforts from both communities. It can be resolved by addressing the sense of insecurity and helplessness among the Meiteis and genuine concerns of the Kuki community simultaneously,” it mentioned.
It is unfortunate that the spate of unrest and violence that erupted afterwards among those who have been living a peaceful life with mutual harmony and co-operation for centuries has not yet stopped, it added.
