Gen Kalita assured them of whole-hearted support of the Army and Assam Rifles in this endeavour, said a statement by Assam Rifles.

Accordingly, the community leaders proposed to undertake confidence building measures that could bridge the divide.

As a first step, society leaders from Meitei organisations led a convoy,, of Kuki community persons stranded in relief camps in Imphal to Churachandpur on May 9 .

In a reciprocal gesture, Kuki leaders led a convoy of Meiteis stranded in Churachandpur to Imphal the same day.

S.imilar arrangements were replicated from Imphal to Kangpokpi and Moreh the following day.

Overall a total of 4271 people were provided safe passage between Imphal- Churachandpur, 4134 people between Imphal-Kangpokpi and off 5 people between Imphal-Moreh, added the statement.
