NGOs stoking ethnic tension in Manipur, says SC panel

The Supreme Court-appointed committee's ground situation report on ethnic conflicts in Manipur accuses state NGOs of obstructing the cremation of 88 bodies preserved in mortuaries and preventing the acceptance of ex gratia. The committee, headed by former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Justice Gita Mittal, highlights the pressure exerted by civil society organizations (CSOs) on relatives not to accept the bodies. The report also mentions CSOs opposing the performance of last rites and maintaining tension between communities in Manipur.
