\"\"Churachandpur: Clashes erupted between locals and the police in Manipur\u2019s Churachandpur after a group tried to tear down decorative structures erected along roads in preparation for Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s visit to the district on Saturday.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, this will be the first visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the state since ethnic clashes broke out over two years ago.<\/p>\n

The clashes on Thursday took place at the Pearsonmun area in Churachandpur town. The locality is close to the Border Security Force facility where Modi\u2019s helicopter is expected to land.<\/p>\n

The prime minister is expected to travel about 5 km by road from the facility to the Peace Ground to attend an event.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, groups of men armed with sticks went on a rampage at two places near the BSF facility. Videos circulating widely on social media showed the men tearing down the erected frames and engaging in arson.<\/p>\n

Visuals also showed the groups clashing with police officers, who baton-charged the men to force them to disperse.<\/p>\n

Manipur has been embroiled in ethnic clashes between the Meiteis and Kuki-Zo-Hmar communities that have killed at least 260 persons and displaced more than 59,000 persons since May 2023. There were periodic upticks in violence in 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
