As the CRPF team closed in, the militants opened fire, leading to a prolonged exchange. The security forces responded with calculated precision, ultimately neutralizing 10 militants and seizing a significant cache of arms, ammunition, and communication equipment. Sources indicate that these militants belonged to a group allegedly involved in recent attacks against security forces and civilians, further destabilizing the region. The specific identity and affiliation of the militants are yet to be confirmed, but authorities believe they were linked to a local insurgent group operating in Manipur and neighboring regions.

No casualties were reported among the CRPF personnel, underscoring the operation’s strategic planning and effective execution. This encounter is part of ongoing efforts to combat insurgency in Manipur, a state that has seen recurring violence due to separatist movements and ethnic tensions. In recent months, security forces have intensified operations in northeastern India, aiming to dismantle insurgent networks and restore stability.
The operation has garnered widespread support as a significant blow against militant activity in the region, with government officials praising the CRPF for their swift and effective response. Enhanced surveillance and intelligence-sharing initiatives are expected to continue, as authorities aim to curb the resurgence of insurgent violence in the northeast.
