NEW DELHI — The commission of inquiry investigating the ethnic violence in Manipur has been granted its seventh extension by the central government, pushing the deadline for its final report to May 2027.
The panel, originally established to examine the causes and sequence of events leading to the widespread unrest, received the latest extension to complete its comprehensive review and findings. The commission has repeatedly required additional time to gather evidence and record testimonies regarding the conflict in the northeastern state.
With the new timeline in place, the inquiry panel is now expected to submit its official findings to the Centre by May 20, 2027.
