MP - Meitei Police?

On 17.09.23 Scroll, in its article, confirmed what has long been suspected - that, the Meitei-dominated Manipur Police has already been divided along the ethnic lines, wherein the Meitei policemen are fighting side by side with the Meitei Terrorists to kill the innocent Hmar-Zo-Kuki people which eventually led to the martyring  of a Kuki Sub Inspector of Lamka Police, by Meitei terrorists of Bishnupur. It was alleged that the Meitei terrorists were given a free run by the Meitei police of Bishnupur.

In the initial days of the Meitei genocide pogrom in May 2023, a Kuki IPS officer was removed as DGP of the Meitei dominated Manipur Police, allegedly on the recommendation of the already biased Meitei CM. They correctly presumed that the Kuki DGP would be upholding the Constitution of India, and he would not support the Meitei genocide pogrom. The Meitei CM, also the Home Minister of Manipur, is the one who controls the Meitei dominated Manipur Police - but, his head did not roll. Apparently, it was assumed by the centre that the meitei CM would be eternally neutral and that he will defend the Hmar-Zo-Kuki people against the Meitei police and Meitei terrorists. Not surprisingly, the Meitei CM has been on the forefront in labeling/ stereotyping and racially profiling the Hmar-Zo-Kuki people; adding more fuel to the fire.

Whilst the then DGP was removed very promptly, being a Kuki, the same promptness and "neutrality" was not shown in appointing the SPs of the districts where Meitei terrorists such as Arambai Tenggol, PLA etc are most active. More than the DGP it is the SPs who are on the ground and executing the policies of the government.

In all the Meitei dominated districts the SPs are invariably Meitei police, and in all the Kuki dominated districts, adjoining the Meitei districts, no Kuki Police officer has been made the SP, despite the availability of eligible officers.

Incidentally, most of the attacks by the Meitei Terrorists on the Hmar-Zo-Kuki villages happened from the Meitei districts headed by the Meitei SPs.

Below is the list of the SPs, of the Meitei-dominated Manipur Police, of the districts where most genocide against the Hmar-Zo-Kuki people are carried out:

1. Imphal West (Meitei district ) - Ibomcha MPS (Meitei)
2. Imphal East (Meitei) - Ksh. Shivakanta IPS (Meitei)
3. Thoubal (Meitei ) - Sachidananda Soibam MPS (Meitei)
4. Bishnupur (Meitei) - Meghachandra, MPS (Meitei)
5. Kakching (Meitei) - Th. Vikramjit MPS (Meitei)
6. Jiribam (Meitei) -  M.Pradip Singh IPS (Meitei)
7. Kamjong (Naga) - Polem Manjit Singh, MPS (Meitei)
8. Noney (Naga) - Madhunimai Singh, MPS (Meitei)
9. Chandel (Kuki/ Naga) - Hemant Pandey IPS (Others*)
10. Churachandpur (Hmar-Kuki-Zo) - Karthik Malladi IPS (Others)
11. Kangpokpi (Kuki) -Manoj IPS (Others)
12. Tengnoupal (Kuki/ Naga) - Luikham (Naga) MPS

(*Others means from other states of India)

The above data clearly shows the double-standards of the Meitei government in sidelining the Kuki policemen, and stationing the Meitei policemen to be SPs of Meitei Districts so that they can carry on their attack against the Hmar-Zo-Kuki people. The Security Adviser to the Government of Manipur, and the Union Home Minister should act upon this double-standards and should immediately appoint Police Officers from other communities, and from other states of India , as SPs to these Meitei dominated districts, if the Meitei terrorists are to be flushed out, and if the law and order is to be restored. The Meitei SPs are found to be miserably failing in upholding the law of the land, but are allegedly acting at the behest of the Meitei terrorists. This cannot go on.
