Kiren Rijiju concerned over attacks on north-eastern people

Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju has called for a meeting with all the ministers and officials of the Delhi Police to look into the increasing attacks on the north-eastern people across the country.

"I am conducting a meeting with all the ministers and Delhi Police. Further steps will be taken to stop such incidents. It is very unfortunate and we are looking into the matter that why such incidents are taking place," Rijiju told the media in New Delhi on Friday. Earlier on Thursday, a 33-year-old PhD scholar from Manipur was found murdered at his residence in South Delhi's Kotla area.

In a separate case in Bangalore, a 25-year-old Manipuri youth was allegedly attacked by three people.
