Rijiju meets Manipur CM over economic blockade
Imphal/New Delhi: Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju on Friday met Manipur Chief Minister Okram Ibobi Singh over the economic blockade in the state imposed by Nagas.
According to informed sources, Rijiju will visit the areas worst hit by the blockade imposed by the United Naga Council to denounce the creation of seven new districts from areas inhabited by Nagas in Manipur. The Imphal Valley has been simmering following the Congress government’s decision to create Jiribam, Kangpokpi, Tengoupal, Pharzol, Kakching, Noney and Kamjongin districts.
Naga protesters are preventing all trucks from reaching the Imphal Valley. Trucks, which transport essential goods, are also being blocked from leaving the valley. “Heading for Manipur to review the security situation. Must resolve the prevailing humanitarian crisis due to economic blockade,” Rijiju earlier tweeted.

What monkey fled with a bag containing evidence in it: Read full story
The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.
In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).
The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.
The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.
Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.
In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.
The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
