Finding a Way Out of Festering Conflict in India’s Manipur​

Manipur, a state in north-eastern India, has been beset with intercommunal strife since May 2023. The central government has now taken a bold step to quell the violence. It should keep acting urgently to avert a protracted crisis.

What’s new? After close to two years of violence, the Indian government has imposed President’s Rule in Manipur, putting it directly in charge of the troubled north-eastern state’s affairs. New Delhi should seize the opportunity to quell an ethnic conflict that has killed more than 260 people and displaced some 60,000.
Why does it matter? Insurgent groups have resurfaced in Manipur over the past year. Failure to resolve the conflict could not just lead to more bloodshed and displacement, but also derail dialogue with the militants. It also risks destabilising other parts of north-eastern India, upsetting the hard-earned peace in neighbouring states.
What should be done? Now that it has imposed President’s Rule, the central government should disarm the two sides and re-establish law and order. Finding a sustainable way out of the crisis will be difficult, but New Delhi should initiate negotiations by urgently creating a peace committee acceptable to both communities.

When taking off or landing at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in Mumbai, India, it’s impossible to miss seeing the tight patchwork of hundreds, if not thousands, of flat roofs atop low-rise buildings in its Dharavi neighborhood of about 1 million people in less than 1 sq mile—one of the world’s largest and most densely populated slums.

Despite Dharavi's official “slum” designation by India that prevents many residents from having basic sanitation or drinking water connections in their dwellings, the tiny community thrums with activity. Shops and small businesses are family-owned over multiple generations, motorcycles zip every which way through dense traffic and throngs of people move on a labyrinth of narrow roads.

Last week, Trump, in a joint press meet with PM Modi, confirmed that the US would eventually provide F-35 stealth fighters to India.​

India is reportedly considering the acquisition of the F-35 fighter jets from the US, a move that could follow a government-to-government model similar to India’s Rafale deal with France. This deal, still in the proposal stage, is expected to involve the purchase of a limited number of F-35s, serving as a stop-gap solution until India’s indigenous Advanced Multirole Combat Aircraft (AMCA) program is ready, reported the Economic Times.

The procurement of these fifth-generation fighter jets comes at a critical time for the Indian Air Force (IAF), whose fleet of mainly Russian and ex-Soviet aircraft has shrunk to 31 squadrons, well below the approved strength of 42. The need for modern, advanced aircraft has become more pressing as China rapidly expands its air force capabilities.

Singapore is exploring new initiatives like manufacturing of semiconductors and building a semiconductor ecosystem in India apart from participating in the creation of new generation of technological solutions, the city-State’s President Tharman Shanmugaratnam said on Thursday. The visiting dignitary recounted his 2022 visit to India as the Senior Minister of Singapore when he toured Assam and announced that this time he is focusing on Odisha.

MUMBAI, Feb 17 (Reuters) - The Indian rupee's direction this week will be shaped by the dollar's reaction to its recent correction and whether worries over U.S. tariffs continue to subside, while the bond market will be on watch for any further liquidity infusion measures by the central bank.
The rupee ended at 86.8225 per U.S. dollar on Friday, having rallied 0.7% in the week in what was its best performance in more than one-and-a-half years.
People were still seen pushing to pack into trains in India's capital city on Sunday,




That was largely due to the Reserve Bank of India's heavy intervention, while an additional boost came from the lack of any U.S. tariffs implemented last week, as U.S. President Donald Trump had said would happen.

Kunal Kurani, associate vice president at Mecklai Financial, noted that after the rally, which likely squeezed out positions, the rupee is expected to more broadly track the dollar's move.

Should this comes into fruition, I can bet with you that all the details and technicalities of the F-35 will fall into Russian hands in no time. Trump is indeed a big idiot.
