Peace for Manipur: The Way Forward? | K. Himalay Singh | Rami N. Desai | ASCON Conversations S2 EP1

The Asian Confluence is pleased to launch the second season of ASCON Conversations, our flagship series that features focused dialogues between noted experts on key regional and global issues. Each exchange offers multiple perspectives, highlighting differences while identifying common ground and pathways for collaboration. In the first episode of ASCON Conversations Season 2, Lt Gen. Konsam Himalay Singh and Dr Rami Niranjan Desai discuss the security situation in Manipur. With Prime Minister Modi’s recent visit—where he called for peace and announced nearly $1 billion in development projects—the conversation explores what it will take to end two years of ethnic violence that has claimed over 260 lives. The panellists reflect on the Prime Minister’s message, the path to sustainable peace, and the role of communities, government, and civil society in rebuilding trust.
