The assault, which allegedly involved physical manhandling, molestation, and the use of lathis and tear gas shells, resulted in serious injuries to many women.
They said that they were standing guard to protect their ancestral lands and freedom.
The Kuki Inpi has demanded that the established buffer zones be honoured and strictly enforced and that the central forces take immediate and decisive action to neutralize and disarm the armed Meitei groups who continue to terrorize and destabilize the lives of the Kuki-Zo people.
