More than two years after ethnic clashes broke out between the Meitei and Kuki-Zo communities, the Manipur government has launched a phased resettlement plan to close all existing relief camps by December 2025. The conflict, which began on May 3, 2023, had displaced over 62,000 people across the state, forcing them into temporary shelters. As of now, the number of internally displaced persons stands at approximately 57,000.
