Manipur violence latest: Saturday was among the deadliest days in a fortnight in Manipur, as several places along the Bishnupur-Churachandpur border reported day-long mortar and grenade attacks in a heavy exchange of fire from both sides.
Six people, including a father-son due, have been killed in strife-torn Manipur in the last 24 hours. Around 16 people have been injured in day-long attacks along the Bishnupur-Churachandpur border areas since early Saturday morning.
The Army has launched a major combing operation in the area, in which at least one insurgent was arrested after sustaining bullet injuries.
In view of the deteriorating law and order situation in the state, there will be no curfew relaxation in the Imphal East and Imphal West districts today, police sources have said.
