Naga Organisations Seek PM Modi's Intervention Over Attacks in Manipur Border Villages

Several Naga civil society organisations, including the United Naga Council, Naga Women's Union, and All Naga Students' Association, have appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for urgent intervention over alleged attacks on Naga villages by Kuki militant groups in Manipur and along the India-Myanmar border. They described the violence as a "proxy war" violating the 2015 Indo-Naga Framework Agreement and accused Kuki groups operating under the Suspension of Operations agreement of targeted killings, village burnings, and extortion. The organisations claim these actions undermine the peace process and threaten regional security.
