Amit Shah’s visit to Manipur comes amid the ethnic violence in the state. On his second day of visit to the state, the Union Home Minister held wide-ranging discussions with civil society organisations, a group of prominent personalities, intellectuals, retired Army officers and civil servants in Imphal.

The central and Manipur government have decided to give a compensation of Rs. 10 lakhs to the kin of the deceased. The compensation amount will be equally shared by the Centre and the state. This decision was taken at a meeting held between Amit Shah and N Biren Singh on Monday night. Moreover, one member of each family whose family member died in the ethnic conflict in Manipur will be provided a job.
