Imphal, February 10 Manipur Deputy Chief Minister L Dikho said on Tuesday that efforts were underway to identify those involved in the violence at Litan in the Ukhrul district.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a programme, Dikho said that all stakeholders were working together to find a solution.
"The chief minister, the government, security forces, civil society groups, and other stakeholders are involved in bringing a solution. We are trying to meet everyone and make them understand. There are positive signs," he said.
"We may not be able to resolve everything immediately due to the situation, but hopefully things will improve soon," he added.
The Naga People's Front leader said that the authorities have not yet identified those behind the violence, but efforts are on to do so.
"Earlier, there was some confusion following the immediate firing and burning of houses. Now the situation is much clearer," he said.
Dikho said that the government is making all efforts to resolve the issue, and that the situation is gradually cooling down.
"We hope everyone will cooperate," he added.
Meanwhile, the state government has extended the internet suspension in the Lhungtin sub-division of Kangpokpi district and the Phungyar sub-division of Kamjong district for five days, with immediate effect.
In a statement, the Home Department said that the decision was taken as there is apprehension that anti-social elements may use social media to circulate images, posts, and videos that could incite public passions and have serious repercussions on the law and order situation in the state.
