Manipur Violence: Curfew Imposed, Internet Shut Down After Deadly Bomb Attack | India News

The Manipur government suspended mobile internet for three days across five districts after two children were killed and their mother injured in a bomb explosion in Bishnupur district. The incident set off fresh protests and violence in the restive state. The internet shutdown applies to Imphal East, Imphal West, Thoubal, Kakching and Bishnupur districts, according to a Home Department order issued April 7. A curfew was also clamped in Bishnupur, where the attack took place just after midnight on Tuesday. A 5-year-old boy and a six-month-old girl were killed in their sleep and their mother was injured when suspected militants lobbed an explosive at their home in Tronglaobi Awang Leikai village in Moirang, a hotbed of unrest between the Meitei and Kuki communities. The incident sparked protests, with locals torching two oil tankers and a truck near a petrol pump, burning tyres outside a police station and damaging a makeshift police outpost. Security forces were deployed to restore order. #breakingnews #breaking #topnews #manipur #india #indianews #worldnews #global #protest #mirrornow #mirrornoworiginals #imphal SUBSCRIBE NOW | https://bit.ly/SubscribeToMirrorNow For More Updates ► http://www.mirrornownews.com Download our App for Breaking News: https://tinyurl.com/yc5hp7ma Like us on Facebook ►   / mirrornow   Follow us on Twitter ►   / mirrornow   Follow us on Instagram ►   / mirrornow_in   Subscribe to our other network channels: Times Now Navbharat: https://bit.ly/SubscribeToTNNavbharat Zoom: https://bit.ly/SubscribeToZoom Times Now: https://bit.ly/SubscribeToTimesNow ET Now: https://bit.ly/SubscribeToETNow TN+: https://bit.ly/SubscribeToTNPlus
