Forty-Six KCP-PWG Cadres Surrender Arms in Manipur, Rehabilitation Planned
Forty-six active cadres of the banned Kangleipak Communist Party (People's War Group) surrendered in Manipur, handing over 28 firearms and a large cache of ammunition and explosives. The surrender, held at the Assam Rifles headquarters in Imphal, was attended by Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh and other officials. This mass surrender is unprecedented for the faction and reflects operational weakening. Under the Revised Scheme for Surrender-cum-Rehabilitation, cadres will receive financial aid, vocational training, and monthly stipends to support reintegration.
