As many as 212 Meitei people who sought refuge across the border in Myanmar following violence in Moreh town since May 3, were now “safely back on Indian soil,” Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh said on Friday.
“A big shout-out to the Indian Army for their dedication in bringing them home. Sincere gratitude to GOC Eastern Command, Lt Gen. RP Kalita, GOC 3 Corp, Lt Gen. HS Sahi and CO of 5 AR, Col. Rahul Jain for their unwavering service,” he said in a post on X.
