About 40 km from Imphal, Phougakchao village in Manipur’s Bishnupur district has been witness to rampant firing and bombing from the neighbouring Kuki-dominated hills, which intensified this week. On July 25, an 18-year-old boy Lonjam Naocha Singh got severely injured by shrapnel as a bomb cracked through the roof of his house in the village.
