“MANIPUR FILE,” which is alleged to discuss and possibly sensationalize sensitive issues within the state

Imphal: The article in the Bengali paper, “Batalipe Daily News,” authored by its Executive Editor, Prabananda Das, has stirred controversy in Manipur. It’s centered around the “MANIPUR FILE,” which is alleged to discuss and possibly sensationalize sensitive issues within the state. Das’s statements, especially those regarding Manipuri society, financial transactions, and cultural traditions, have sparked criticism. He portrayed the Manipuri culture and traditions as archaic and needing modernization, referencing the “Manipur File” as a tool used by Amazon Business agency for selling publications, which seems to have offended the sentiments of the Manipuri community.

The article also delves into the ongoing conflict between the Chin Kuki Naco Terrorists, addressing the impact of this situation on the Meitei community. It points out the concerns of the Meitei people regarding the depiction of Manipur’s affairs, highlighting the need for a balanced, accurate portrayal of their perspectives. The involvement of the Editors Guild of India (EGI) in addressing the concerns surrounding the Manipur File is mentioned, hinting at potential legal actions through the Supreme Court to address these contentions.

Moreover, the Khundrakpam Kendra Youths Organization (KHUKYO) expressed its dissatisfaction with how the conflict involving the Chin Kuki Naco Terrorists is being portrayed, emphasizing the importance of responsible, accurate reporting and requesting a more sensitive approach in representing the ongoing situation.
