Massive bandhs and blockades across Manipur have disrupted the academic calendar, forcing schools and colleges to suspend classes for several days.
Students in several districts report that roads to educational institutions are closed, making it impossible to reach schools. The stoppage has left many pupils without access to lessons, exams and extracurricular activities.
In response, the Chief Minister of Manipur has called for an immediate end to the unrest, urging all parties to engage in dialogue and seek peaceful solutions. He emphasized the need for reconciliation to restore normalcy for the state's youth.
The unrest, which has escalated in recent weeks, has seen protests and road blockages that extend beyond educational facilities, affecting daily life and commerce in the region.
