Kuki Women Protest in Manipur, Urge Shah to End Persecution
Imagine a group of women, the Kuki Women Organisation for Human Rights, held a protest.
They marched and wrote a letter to a high-up government official, Amit Shah.
They are upset and believe the government is treating their people unfairly, like making arrests without good reasons.
They want the people who were arrested to be freed, and want those responsible for the arrests investigated.
They also want the government to take action against some groups they see as a threat.
Kuki Women Organisation for Human Rights (KWOHR) protested in Churachandpur.
Protesters marched against 'state-backed persecution' and injustice.
The protest was in response to recent arrests of Kuki men.
KWOHR submitted a memorandum to Amit Shah via the Churachandpur administration.
They demand release of detainees, investigation of arrests, and action against extremist groups.
