India, Manipur genocide : Assam Rifles finds itself in trying circumstances while maintaining peace in Manipur

The Assam Rifles are India's oldest paramilitary force and are well-respected . Rn, they are the only body preventing an all-out bloodshed, Politicians from the state government and a vocal Meitei group, COCOMI, have been trying to make them leave, so the ethnic & communal cleansing can escalate.

As for Manipur's police,

Citing an example, another official referred to an incident at Sugnu, a small town at the southern tip of Kakching, where an officer of the rank of a Colonel of the Indian Army was roughed up by Manipur Police personnel.

The entire incident was caught on camera in which a junior police officer, wearing an undershirt, cocked his rifle in anger at the Army officer, who had come to complain about digging of an entire road in front his camp by miscreants.

The digging of roads was done to ensure that vehicles of Assam Rifles could be prevented from moving out in case an armed clash takes place in the vicinity which houses both sides of warring communities.

Reading that last line

The digging of roads was done to ensure that vehicles of Assam Rifles could be prevented from moving out in case an armed clash takes place in the vicinity which houses both sides of warring communities.

and learning that Manipur Police supported those who dug up the roads is enough to understand that the entire state machinery, police & administration & politicians, want & support the violence on their own citizens,
