Resumption of transport services in Manipur

The resumption of transport services serves as a practical example of infrastructure connectivity and state-level governance challenges in conflict-affected regions, useful as context for answers on internal security or infrastructure development.

Notes

Public road transport services between Imphal and Guwahati have officially resumed.
The region had been reliant solely on air travel for connectivity since the eruption of ethnic conflict on May 3, 2023.
The restoration of road connectivity is intended to facilitate movement for students and patients seeking medical treatment outside the state.
