Kuki Militancy has been spreading for a decade

Manipur has been struggling with the problem of Kuki militancy for several decades. Some groups of the Kuki tribe have created an atmosphere of violence and instability in the state. The main causes of Kuki militancy include political and economic dissatisfaction, the struggle for cultural and linguistic identity, and inequalities in land and resource distribution. Militant organizations affiliated with the Kuki tribe frequently attack security forces, kill and abduct civilians, and perpetrate violent incidents.
