The Manipur Government has sought the assistance of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) by requesting an Air Asset, specifically a helicopter, due to the “continued exchange of fire between State police commandos and armed miscreants in the border town of Moreh.” The letter from T. Ranjit Singh, Commissioner (Home), Manipur, highlights the serious concern over the law and order situation in Moreh, where one Indian Reserve Battalion (IRB) personnel lost his life in an attack by suspected Kuki militants. The request urges the MHA to provide an Air Asset to meet emergency requirements for at least seven days.
