The RSS stated that there is no place for violence and hatred in a democratic setup and that the solution to any problem is mutual dialogue
The RSS has called for peace in Manipur, which has been reeling under turmoil for over 45 days.
The RSS has condemned the violence that erupted on May 3 in Churachandpur and termed it unfortunate.
“The violence and uncertainty that started in Manipur after the protest rally organized in Churachandpur on May 03, 2023 at the time of Lai Haraoba festival is to be condemned. It is very unfortunate that the spate of unrest and violence that erupted afterwards among those who have been living a peaceful life with mutual harmony and co-operation for centuries has not yet stopped,” the RSS wrote.
The RSS added that it stands with the 50,000 displaced persons and victims of the Manipur crisis.
“The Rashtreeya Swayamsevak Sangh stands with the displaced persons and other victims of the Manipur crisis numbering more than 50,000 during this period of terrible grief,” RSS added.
The RSS stated that there is no place for violence and hatred in a democratic setup and that the solution to any problem is mutual dialogue and through expression of brotherhood.
“Rashtreeya Swayamsevak Sangh is of the considered opinion that there is no place for violence and hatred in a democratic setup, and also believes that the solution of any problem is possible only through mutual dialogue and expression of brotherhood in a peaceful atmosphere,” the RSS further wrote.
The RSS also appealed to everyone to overcome the deficit of trust, which it said was the cause of the present crisis.
“Rashtreeya Swayamsevak Sangh appeals everyone to overcome the deficit of trust among each other which is the cause of the present crisis. It requires comprehensive efforts from both communities. It can be resolved by addressing the sense of insecurity and helplessness among the Meiteis and genuine concerns of the Kuki community simultaneously,” RSS added.
The Sangh also appealed to the government, including local administration, police, military, and central agencies, to take every possible step to immediately stop the violence and ensure the seamless supply of relief materials among the displaced people.
Furthermore, the RSS appealed to the civil society groups, the political groups in Manipur, and common people to take every possible initiative to put an end to the present chaotic and violent situation and also ensure the safety of human life and permanent peace in Manipur.
