💨 Abstract

Manipuri writer Haobam Satyabati Devi, winner of the Sahitya Akademi Award, discusses the challenging conditions in Manipur due to the Meitei-Kuki conflict. She explains that freedom of expression is restricted only in conflict-affected areas, but movement of intellectuals is limited. Over 250 people have been killed in ethnic violence since May last year, and the central and state governments are working to restore peace.
