Manipur Displacement: Thousands Remain in Relief Camps Years After Violence
Nearly three-and-a-half years after ethnic violence displaced thousands in Manipur, around 60,000 internally displaced people remain in relief camps. Newborns like nine-month-old Th Yaisna and others have spent their earliest months in converted classrooms and makeshift shelters at sites such as the Akampat relief camp in Imphal. Families continue to live in cramped conditions with limited prospects for permanent housing, while parents recall the homes and livelihoods they lost during the conflict.
