Journal Title: International Journal of Interdisciplinary and Multidisciplinary Studies (IJIMS) - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Manipur is one among the states in North East India, where popular discontent around the illegal and unconstitutional merger and subsequent discriminatory treatment fumed resistance movements ever since 1949 and escalated into open armed conflict since late 1970‟s. Since 1949 Manipur signed Merger Agreement with India, there has been ongoing civil unrest on the issue of demanding greater autonomy or independence from India by various armed underground groups. Government of India is also still unable to introduce any suitable means for the permanent solution of the issue in the state. And she has still taking the responsibility for arising of those unrest by introducing several Draconian Laws including the Disturb Area Act, Indian Arms Act, 1959, Explosives Act, Explosive Substances Act, UAP, Punjab Security Act, Prevention of Seditious Meetings Act 1911 and Armed Forces (Special Power) Act, 1958 in the state. The Armed Forces, Polices and Underground Groups were the violators of the Human Rights in Manipur. The level of education and literacy level too affects the understanding of civil liberties and freedoms. Thus, the paper tries to focus on the status of Human Rights, its violations in Manipur and along with that some suggestions to solve present Human Rights violations in the State will be discussed.
