The bandh call comes in the wake of recent events in Manipur, where tensions have been high and the state has been on the boil for the last three months after ethnic clashes broke out between the Meities and Kukis in light of the Manipur High Court asking the state government to consider adding the Meiteis to the list of Scheduled Tribes (STs).
