In denunciation of the communal violence, a sit-in protest was held under the joint aegis of Friend Union Club, Khongnangpheidekpi and local meira paibi groups at the club's premises on Monday.
Airing their grievances, members of the meira paibi informed media persons that both the government and the security forces deployed in the state seem to be in of a partic-ular community.
They also cautioned the gov-ernment of possibility of the situation aggravating and vi-olence increasing in the state if grievance of the affected com-munity is not acknowledged.
The protestors also shouted slogans like "Territorial integ-rity of Manipur cannot be com-promised" and "We condemn the statement of Mizoram CM Zoramthanga".
