The Centre is taking all necessary steps to restore order in the violence-hit Manipur, Union minister Kiren Rijiju said on May 6.

“Communal violence between two communities is a very unfortunate incident. Many lives have been lost and there is damage to property. Whether Meiteis or Kukis both belong to the same State and need to live together,” Mr. Rijiju said and called for dialogue.
