A video of two tribal women being paraded naked and subjected to blatant acts of sexual assault by a mob of men in the violence-hit northeastern state of Manipur has triggered outrage in India.

The widely shared footage led prime minister Narendra Modi to address the country in some of his first remarks since the conflict broke out in Manipur, saying the incident “shamed India” and that the guilty won’t be spared.

 

“I assure the nation, the law will take its course with all its might. What happened with the daughters of Manipur can never be forgiven,” he said ahead of the opening of the monsoon session of the Indian parliament.

The incident reportedly took place on 4 May in the early stages of the violence that erupted between the Meitei and Kuki communities after some Kukis protested against calls by the mostly Hindu Meitei community to be granted protected tribal status.

Since then the state has been effectively torn in two, with more than 140 people killed and over 40,000 displaced as both communities engaged in attacks on each other’s residences and vehicles, burning down churches and temples.

I think it was BBC that reported the women who were shamed by Hindus were Christians, which may be the religion of the tribe. Ain't religion great? (Not)

This stuff has been going on a long time.  When I first traveled to India in the 1970s it was near impossible to get a travel permit for that whole NE region of the country.
