    MAHEIROI 2011 An Annual Magazine of the Manipur Students’ Association Delhi © MSAD 2011 Editorial Board: Malem Ningthouja Praem Hidam Nongmaithem Manishwar Beerjurekha Samom Khumukcham Chinglen Luwang E-mail: [email protected] Contribution price Rupees 100 only ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Dedicated to those who fight for Justice Dear friends, At the very outset I would like to express my happiness to the successful publication of Maheiroi 2011. I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to Coordinator Chinglen Luwang, Malem Ningthouja (Chairperson, Election Committee), Praem Hidam (Advisor), and Manishwar (Advisor) for their initiative and hard labour. Furthermore, I would like to share my expectation to the succeeding executive terms to have regular publication of Maheiroi. I wish that Maheiroi 2011 serves the interest of the Manipur student community and inspires them as well. Our executive term (2010-2011) coincided with turmoil situations in Manipur. The longest blockade that Manipur had ever witnessed was carried out in an environment of mistrust and animosity among communities in Manipur. There was apprehension of the situation culminating into communal violence. The political decadence in Manipur has attained such high degree that despite prices of goods increasing to astronomical high, thereby affecting the economic livelihood of the common people, neither the government nor the contending forces were seriously working towards urgent amicable political solution. Another important issue that we came across was people’s call for peace and democracy. We were involved in the people’s demand for peace directed against AFSPA, i.e., a struggle in which the decade long hunger strike of Irom Chanu Sharmila had been an integral part.

But these explanations fail to account for the large variance in political outcomes within the North East. An exploration of the political history of the region demonstrates that disorder accompanies a contested and weak authority of state agencies and the fragmentation of society. This state-society reading of politics may help in unraveling the differing success with political order in two States in the region - Manipur and Mizoram.
