In a significant initiative aimed at protecting and educating the vulnerable children in relief camps in Manipur, the Irilbung Police Station joined forces with Standard College, Kongba, and conducted a sensitisation programme on child sexual abuse.
The event, held at the Akampat Relief Camp in Imphal East, featured a skit performed by the college students and video lectures designed to educate and inform the minor inmates about the critical issue of child sexual abuse.
The skit performed by the students of Standard College effectively communicated the dangers of child sexual abuse and the importance of speaking out against such acts.
It was designed to be both informative and engaging, ensuring that the young audience could easily grasp the serious message being conveyed.
The programme comes in the wake of more than a year of ethnic clashes and various other crises that have rocked the state of Manipur, displacing over 65,000 people.
A significant portion of these displaced individuals are children, who now face numerous threats while living in relief camps spread across the state.
During the event, the Superintendent of Police for Imphal East, K Meghachandra, highlighted the importance of such recreational and educational programmes for the relief camp inmates, especially the children.
