In view of the development of law and order, the Manipur government has relaxed curfew timing in Imphal West and Imphal East Districts from 5 am to 5 pm for Wednesday.

According to orders issued by the respective district magistrates on Tuesday, curfew has been relaxed in both districts to facilitate the general public in purchasing essential items including medicines and food.

It further said that the relaxation will, however, not apply to any gatherings/large-scale movement of persons/sit-in-protests/rallies etc. which is unlawful in nature without obtaining permission from the competent authority.
