Since yesterday, there’s been shock and horror over a viral video from Manipur, showing two Kuki women being paraded naked by a mob. The women were sexually assaulted; one of them was allegedly gangraped.
While this happened on May 4, the video went viral only yesterday. The reactions were swift. Prime Minister Modi made his first statement on the Manipur violence, the Supreme Court said it would take action if the government did not, and the National Commission of Women took suo motu cognisance of the case.
