The Manipur High Court has ordered the postponement of the mass burial of 35 people who were killed in ethnic riots in the state; the status quo must be maintained at the proposed burial site in Churachandpur district, while ITLF, an apex tribal body, said it is postponing the funeral service plans by seven days following requests from the Union Home Ministry. Over 25 people have been injured in clashes as Army and RAF personnel fired tear gas shells in Kangvai and Phougakchao areas in Bishnupur district on Thursday.
