Imphal: In a different instance in Jiribam, Manipur, where new violence broke out last week, two Meitei abandoned houses were purportedly set on fire in the small hours of Friday by unidentified miscreants.

This occurs in spite of the fact that more security forces have been stationed in the Jiribam district following the resurgence of unrest in the Manipur border district.

The incident happened on Friday morning in Bhutangkhal, which is under the Borobekra police station, according to the police. There were no recorded casualties during the event.

Manipur’s Jiribam district, which borders Assam, is a major centre for commerce. But on June 6, a new wave of violence broke out when the beheaded body of a missing individual was discovered, putting an end to business as usual in the region.

Thousands of residents have been forced to leave to safer locations in nearby Assam and other areas of the Jiribam district after more than 70 houses belonging to both communities have been completely destroyed so far.

According to district police, more security personnel have been stationed nearby to stop any unwelcome events from happening. Additional security personnel are keeping an eye on critical areas, including Manipur Police and central forces.

The All Jiribam Muslim Welfare Society (AJMWS) limited the district’s Eid-ul-Adha celebration’s amusement and recreational opportunities in light of the current circumstances in Jiribam.

According to an announcement from the AJMWS, the decision was made during a society meeting that took place on Friday in Sonapur, Jiribam.

The AJMWS announced that Eid-ul-adha Namaz will be served at the separate Masjids of the neighbourhood, prohibiting large-scale prayer gatherings for condolences at the Eidgah of Jiribam’s Muslim neighbourhoods.

During the conference, it was also determined to limit all forms of pleasure and recreation related to the Eid-ul-Adha festival in Jiribam, with the exception of the holiday’s prayers and required activities.

Given the current state of affairs in Manipur, AJMWS has made the decision to conduct a special prayer on Eid day in hopes of bringing peace and normalcy back to the region as well as ensuring the souls of those who have lost their lives in the ongoing violence in Manipur rest in peace. Additionally, it pleaded with all of Jiribam’s Muslim brothers and sisters to refrain from making pointless motions throughout the region.
