Challenges of the district : Our research with local communities
For the last three four months the state has been in a state of turmoil because of a big encounter by the police commando in which a pregnant woman was killed. As a result many people, NGOs, and development societies have asked the government to resign. Students have boycotted all their classes. There are no classes being conducted fro the past three months in Manipur specially the valley area. All these things are taking its toll on the social development of the state. In the other areas of development also the government has failed to implement its policies. Actually there is total anarchy here.
