Abstract

The conflicts in Manipur have a long socio-political history. The root causes behind these clashes are diverse and complex, including colonization, governance issues, drug trafficking, discrimination, geopolitics, and militarization. The ethnic groups and governments have failed to reconcile the differences peacefully. Through this chapter, the researcher is trying to provide an overview of the conflict and how this has affected the people of Manipur. The researcher will identify various dimensions of the conflict in Manipur and analyze how drug trafficking, land rights, and illegal migration are linked to ethnic violence between Kukis and Meiteis by highlighting the historical, cultural, and political aspects of the problem. Further, the existing policies and laws are analysed. Finally, the need for peace negotiations, the requirement for the disarmament of the communities, the need for investigation and trial of grave violations, and the necessity for establishing a truth and reconciliation commission will be discussed.
