Abstract
The Manipur is now in a hotbed of violent ethnic clashes between Meiteis and Kukis. The ethnic clashes begun after the verdict given by Manipur High Court. The honorable court urged the state government to recommend the proposal to the Union Ministry to consider the ST tag to the Meiteis. The All Tribal Student Union Manipur (ATSUM) organized the ‘Tribal Solidarity March’ on 3rd May to protest against the High Court verdict. Demographically the Meiteis are the majority with 53% population but not considered as native inhabitants. Therefore, they constantly demanded the Schedule Tribe status. But the other tribal communities opposed the inclusion of the Meiteis as tribal or ST status. The state government role was not active to control of the situation.
