Situation in Manipur heartbreaking
As unrest in Manipur continued on Wednesday with reports of intermittent firing at two places, Congress Parliamentary Party chairperson Sonia Gandhi appealed for peace and said the unprecedented violence had left a deep wound on the nation’s conscience.

Security officials confirmed that around 15-20 rounds of automatic weapon fire was heard at 11.45 pm on Tuesday before it fell silent at Thangjing. Sporadic firing was also reported from Geljang and Singda, both falling in the Kangchup area, they added.
