Reportedly, the Union Home Minister told the women that he would come back to Manipur after 10 days.

The women who met the Union Home Minister were members of Poirei Leimarol, Apunba Manipur Kanba Ima Lup (AMKIL), Kanglamei, United Mother's Association (UMA), Kanglei Ima Lup (KIL), Women's Association for Socio-Economic Development (WASDEV) and Khwairamband Ima Keithel Sinpham amasung Saktam Kanba Lup (KIMSSKL) and they submitted a memorandum listing a series of demands such as implementation of National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Manipur and to grant Scheduled Tribe (ST) status to the Meiteis among others.

The meeting was also attended by Governor Anusuiya Uikey, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai, BJP National spokesperson Dr Sambit Patra.

Speaking to media persons after the meeting, one of the women leaders said that they have apprised Amit Shah about the necessity to control Kuki militants to restore peace in Manipur.

She said that they have also urged the Union Home Minister to monitor the violent activities taking place right under the nose of Central security forces.

The representatives of women organisations also sought the intervention of the Centre to ensure safe vehicular movements along the National Highways, implement National Register of Citizens (NRC) and grant Scheduled Tribe (ST) status to the Meiteis.

About the meeting, she said that the Union Home Minister has assured to send an adequate supply of essential items to Imphal within two days.

"Amit Shah told us that the violence in Manipur couldn't be ended instantly and it will take time," she said.

The Union Home Minister appealed to both the parties in conflict to shun violence during the meeting, she conveyed.

Saying that Amit Shah has assured to visit Manipur again after 10 days, the woman leader maintained that the Union Home also expressed his commitment to keep the territorial integrity of Manipur intact during the meeting.

Another women leader Thingujam Rani said that Amit Shah sought the assistance of civil society organisations, meira paibi lups and all the communities to restore peace in the State.

Reportedly, the representatives of women organisations have cautioned of launching intense agitations to the Union Home Minister if he fails to come to terms to restore peace during his meetings with Kuki leaders at Churachandpur, Moreh and Kangpokpi.
