In a series of swift operations across Manipur, security forces have arrested multiple individuals linked to insurgent groups, arms smuggling networks, and vehicle theft gangs.
The crackdown is part of an intensified campaign to dismantle armed networks believed to be fuelling ethnic tensions and sporadic violence that have gripped the northeastern state for over a year.
In an effort to maintain peace and stability across Manipur's hill and valley districts, security forces launched extensive search operations and area domination exercises in vulnerable and fringe regions.
These operations, designed to suppress militant activities, led to the significant recovery of a large cache of arms and ammunition.
