About 1,000 Pangal (Muslim) students in Manipur's Thoubal district have been unable to attend schools in the Meitei-majority area for 16 days following a deadly clash. The conflict began after the killing of Khangabok resident Rakesh Laishram on October 18 during stone-throwing between Meitei and Pangal villagers. Security forces were deployed, and both communities formed separate joint action committees with distinct demands.
