Manipur police and security forces intensified intelligence-based combing operations, leading to major breakthroughs in curbing extortion by militant outfits. These efforts resulted in the arrest of four active cadres from different proscribed groups, along with the recovery of firearms, explosives, and extorted money.
Authorities also bolstered security measures across the state, securing the movement of essential goods on NH-2 and NH-37 with armed convoys. A large cache of arms and ammunition was seized in Bishnupur District. With 110 checkpoints set up and 10 individuals detained, security forces remain vigilant to neutralize insurgent threats and ensure civilian safety.
