At least 36 legislators and two parliamentarians from Manipur's Meitei community pledge to safeguard the state's integrity, organized by the controversial Arambai Tenggol group. The move follows heightened violence, with nine recent deaths. Meitei leaders, spanning political parties, unite to convey community support amidst ethnic clashes. The oath coincides with a Union home ministry delegation's peace talks in Imphal. The group demands the abrogation of agreements with Kuki militants, deportation of Myanmar refugees, and border security. The event signals Meitei solidarity, reflecting the complex ethnic landscape and political challenges in Manipur.
