[00:00:32]>> You see in the recent development the new disease has come and some department like law and orders has been shifted to some capable ADC and there's some changes in the you know the what to say the portfolios like departments in the sector of force has been taken place.

[00:01:01]Moreover, above this the central government has sent the CRPF cobra teams.

[00:01:09]It was assured earlier by the government of India so that effective in dealing with the militants will not be compromised.

[00:01:23]So I think situation will be improved.

[00:01:28]I fully trust on the present DGP >> [snorts] >> and CRPF DG also recently came here.

[00:01:39]And the security measures will definitely take up and definitely will help in bringing peace in the state of money.

[00:01:48]>> So what So what would I like to uh >> I would like to I would like to appeal to the whole community to calm down.

[00:01:57]We should leave violence. There is no place of violence in humanity.

[00:02:05]Whatever grievances and a problem, we should have talk, discussion.

[00:02:11]Only then every crisis will bring through dialogue.

[00:02:20]And the peace can be prevailing in the state of Manipur.

[00:02:23]>> Such was going on for quite a long time.

[00:02:27]>> Do you think that this is a lack of lack of security measures in the hill areas?

[00:02:32]>> Of course, it is always there because we have got a very limited security forces.

[00:02:37]And then now with the recent deployment of uh two battalion of Cobras, I think the situation will improve.

[00:02:44]>> Since the beginning of crisis, uh uh already thousands of paramilitary forces has been deployed in Manipur to oversee the conflict in Manipur. So, do you think that Cobra commandos will solve all the control all these issues and will sort out all all kind of >> You see all the time myself and our honorable Chief Minister made a very strong appeal to the people both in the valley and hill to cooperate the state administration to shun any kind of violence.

[00:03:16]Even [clears throat] if more than more security forces comes to the state and if we the people do not cooperate with them, then they won't be able to do anything.

[00:03:26]>> Sir, uh sir, the nature of this crime the nature of this crime is one of the rarest when it comes to the history of Manipur. But so far, no arrest has arrest has been made so far related to this case.

[00:03:36]>> it is unprecedented. This is a heinous crime. It is against the humanity.

[00:03:42]Kidnapping innocent people and torturing them is highly condemnable. And we have committed that the perpetrators will be arrested very soon. Thank you.

[00:04:12]See, it entirely depends upon the situation at that very point of time.

[00:04:19]So, I think of course we have to take strong action against those people who doesn't have or rather possess humanity in their mind. Launching operation to find out about these But it was very strange, sir. They were released after, you know, See, I have been, you know, telling all of you that operation was going on.

[00:04:49]And luckily, I should say, we could recover the bodies after release of those 14, you know, Kuki people by the kind-hearted Naga people.

[00:05:05]So, we have been searching the bodies.

[00:05:10]So, what is the the timing of the release of the 14 Kukis without any harm and, you know, finding the bodies on the next day is very suspicious. So, what is the reason behind Government always requested the Naga community, the Naga leaders, and our new DGP took very serious step for finding all these six people, you know, whether dead or alive.

[00:05:42]He is deeply involved and seriously involved in it and he could succeeded in we should appreciate him also.

[00:05:50]See releasing 40 14 you know cookie people by the kind-hearted Naga leaders is highly appreciated.

[00:06:03]And this is humanity.

[00:06:06]This is the culture of that particular community. I really appreciate it.

[00:06:12]>> After intensive search by Manipur police, the RPF, Assam rifles and our forensic team and sniffer dog, we were able to recover six mortal remains and we suspect that this are the hostages which were taken on the 13th of May 2026.

[00:06:31]As of now, investigation is going on and then identifications of body will be shortly done.

[00:06:37]And the cases have been handed over to NIA and Manipur police will be assisting NIA in all with all sincerity and with all our strength, we will support the investigation to be done by NIA in this case. Thank you.
