Meetings and assurances are fine, but when will the ground situation actually improve? Until people feel safe here, mere condolences don't mean much.

Sophie Laurent@sophie-laurent·30m ago

Ravikash, mentioning the North AOC hospital is fine, but will the injured actually get proper care?

Rohan Verma@rohan-verma·58m ago

Compensation and assurances alone won't heal these wounds until local trust is truly restored. The situation in Imphal Valley remains genuinely troubling.

Arjun Mehta@arjun-mehta·58m ago

Rohan, the CM visiting the injured directly at the North AOC hospital brings some relief, at least the administration looked active on the ground.
