Скачать или смотреть Manipur: Indian Footballer Chinglensana Singh is one of Thousands Now Without Home

In April 2023, Chinglensana Singh, a Meitei from Lamka, was at the top of the world with a long stint imminent in India's national football team. He was looking forward to the start of a new season, a lucrative new contract with Hyderabad FC, and the prospect of playing a key role for the country at the AFC Asian Cup in January next year. However, in a little over a month, he, and his family have ended up as the collateral damage of the political manoeuvres that resulted in the widespread Meitei-Kuki violence. On May 5, the 'war' came to his family home in the Khumujamba Meitei Leikai in Churachandpur. After evacuation by the Assam Rifles, the NewsClick team met him in Bishnupur and spoke to him against the backdrop of the violence.
