India: How is the ethnic conflict in Manipur affecting ordinary citizens?

The route 101 East takes you northeast of India, where hundreds of people have been killed and thousands of people have been displaced.

Violence between the Meitei and Kuki-Zo, two ethnic groups, has been roiling India’s northeastern state of Manipur for more than two years.

The Indian government has taken control of the state in an effort to restore order, with nearly 260 people killed and about 60, 000 people displaced.

Both sides accuse the other of committing atrocities in what has been described as a civil war.

New Delhi has pledged to end the conflict and bring stability to the area.
