The Supreme Court on Monday directed the Manipur government to submit in a sealed cover detailed information regarding the destruction of properties and encroachments during the ethnic violence that has plagued the state.
&nbsp;
The court has asked the state to provide specifics on both dwelling units that were burnt, either fully or partially, and properties that were encroached upon in the wake of the unrest.
&nbsp;
The bench, comprising Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Sanjay Kumar, also sought information on actions taken against those responsible for the violence and encroachment.
&nbsp;
The case is set to be heard again in the week commencing January 20, 2025.
&nbsp;
The violence in Manipur erupted on May 3, 2023, when a 'Tribal Solidarity March' was organised in the hill districts to protest the demand for Scheduled Tribe status by the majority Meitei community.
&nbsp;
The clashes that followed have led to the deaths of more than 160 people and left several hundred injured.
&nbsp;
In a previous order in August 2023, the Supreme Court had established a committee of three former women high court judges to oversee the relief and rehabilitation of victims, as well as the disbursement of compensation.
&nbsp;
Additionally, former Maharashtra police chief Dattatray Padsalgikar was appointed to monitor the investigation into criminal cases related to the violence.
