The Manipur government on Tuesday eased prohibitory orders in Imphal West, Imphal East and Bishnupur, allowing residents to move between 5am and 5pm. While daytime movement is permitted, activities that may disrupt law and order are still banned, PTI reported. Prohibitory orders were clamped across five districts of Imphal valley from June 7 night after violent protests broke out following the arrest of an Arambai Tenggol leader by the CBI. Alongside the curfew, authorities also suspended internet and mobile data services, including VSAT and VPN connections, in the affected districts for five days. This blackout was aimed at preventing the spread of inflammatory content and misinformation via social media. However, there are no restrictions for government agencies involved in law enforcement, emergency services, banking, and financial institutions. Security forces remain on alert. Authorities have warned that any actions that threaten public order during the relaxed curfew hours will be dealt with strictly. PM Modi's insensitivity towards the suffering of people in Manipur 'truly shocking': Congress Arambai Tenggol calls off Manipur shutdown Meitei radical group Arambai Tenggol on Tuesday suspended its 10-day total shutdown in Manipur, citing the inconveniences and difficulties faced by the public. The shutdown was called three days ago to protest the arrest of Ashem Kanan Singh (46) , a senior leader of the organisation, and four others. Singh, a police head constable dismissed from service in March this year, was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation for his alleged involvement in various criminal activities related to the 2023 Manipur violence. Addressing the media, Arambai Tenggol spokesperson Robin Mangang said the organisation was calling off the shutdown with immediate effect, but would continue democratic forms of protest until Singhs release. The arrest of Ashem Kanan Singh was unrelated to Arambai Tenggol; it was personal. Arambai Tenggol got involved because he is one of its leaders. We cannot sit quietly. We demonstrated our unity through the protests, Mangang said. When security forces came to take Singh into custody on Saturday night, they met resistance from Arambai Tenggol members, who engaged in pitched battles with personnel and burned tyres in the streets to vent their ire. Over the past three days, Manipur witnessed widespread protests in the Imphal Valley districts. Protesters took to the streets, defying curfew orders, to demand Singhs release. The unrest prompted a group of MLAs from various parties to meet Governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla, seeking his intervention to restore peace and normalcy. Former Chief Minister N. Biren Singh also visited New Delhi and reportedly discussed the Manipur situation with central leaders.

PM Modi's insensitivity towards the suffering of people in Manipur 'truly shocking': Congress
NEW DELHI: With fresh violence rocking parts of Manipur, the Congress on Sunday targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his insensitivity to the suffering of people in the state. In a post on X, Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said the pain, distress, and agony of the people of Manipur continues unabated as five districts of Imphal West, Imphal East, Thoubal, Katching, and Bishnupur in Manipur have been rocked by violence in the last 24 hours. A day after violent protests erupted in Manipur over the arrest of a leader of Meitei outfit Arambai Tenggol, the situation remained tense on Sunday with the administration imposing prohibitory orders and suspending internet services in five Imphal valley districts, police said. Prohibitory orders have been clamped in Imphal West, Imphal East, Thoubal, Bishnupur and Kakching districts, while internet and mobile data services, including VSAT and VPN facilities, have been suspended in these valley areas. Hitting out at the government, Ramesh claimed that in February 2022 the BJP engineered a majority for itself alone in the assembly elections. But less than fifteen months later from the night of May 3, 2023 Manipur was made to burn. Hundreds of innocent men, women, and children were killed. Thousands were displaced. Places of worship were destroyed, he said. The pain, distress, and agony of the people of Manipur continues unabated. For the past 24 hours five districts--Imphal West, Imphal East, Thoubal, Katching, and Bishnupur--have been rocked by violence. In February 2022, the BJP engineered a majority for itself alone in the pic.twitter.com/IFRgxL602g Jairam Ramesh (@Jairam_Ramesh) June 8, 2025 On June 4, 2023, the Congress leader said the Union Government set up a three-member Commission of Inquiry. That Commission has been given repeated extensions to submit its report and the latest deadline given to it is November 20, 2025, he noted. On August 1, 2023, Ramesh said the Supreme Court observed that there had been an absolute breakdown of constitutional machinery in the state for the past two months. The Union Home Minister went through the motions of visiting Manipur while the PM maintained absolute silence refusing to say anything and meet anybody from the state. Demands were made by the Indian National Congress for the imposition of President's Rule to begin with. That was ignored till the INC announced that it was bringing a no-confidence motion against the CM in the assembly session beginning February 10, 2025. The BJP read the writing on the wall, got the CM to resign on the night of Feb 9, 2025, and finally imposed President's Rule on February 13, 2025, he said. President's Rule, however, has made no difference, Ramesh said. He claimed the Governor himself has been forced to travel from Imphal airport to his residence by helicopter. Law and order in many parts of the state remains in a state of peril, he added. When will the PM find the time and inclination to visit Manipur? His drum-beaters once claimed that he had stopped the war between Ukraine and Russia for a while. That claim, like most of his boasts, proved completely bogus, he stated. The PM has travelled to different parts of the world and visited numerous states of our country to do his trademark inaugurations. But he has never met with political leaders or civil society organisations from Manipur, having outsourced the management of the state's affairs to the Union Home Minister who has failed miserably, the Congress general secretary alleged. The insensitivity of the Frequent Flyer PM to the suffering of the people of Manipur is truly shocking and defies understanding. He stands totally exposed just as the people of the state continue to pay the price of his callous and complete indifference. Their suffering is that of not only the state and the northeastern region but of the entire country, Ramesh said in his post.
