Kuki militants fired shots towards Leimaram Makha Leikai Maning under Nambol police station from Kharam Kom and Idhijang side in Kangpokpi district on Monday evening forcing the villagers to flee to safer locations.
Speaking in this regard, one Deveshore recalled that Kuki militants launched similar attacks by firing several rounds towards the village in the recent past.
On Monday, around 3 pm, the Kuki militants again fired several rounds using sophisticated weapons, he said.
While noting that a unit of Gorkha Rifles is deployed in the foothills from where the shots fired, he accused the central forces of inaction as and when Kuki militants resort to firing contrary to warning the village volunteers in case the latter retaliate by using double barrel guns.
If they cannot protect the innocent Meetei civilians, then GR personnel should be removed, he reasoned.
