Quick Glance: Why the Biren Singh government gives a free hand to Arambai Tenggol
- On 27 February, the Manipur Police received a tip that two Ambassador cars had been stolen in the Imphal Valley. The prompt response, however, had its costs.
- The police identified the armed attackers as members of Arambai Tenggol, a militia group accused of harassment and violence against various communities.
- Despite the police arresting a commander of Arambai Tenggol, the militia continues to enjoy significant support in the Meitei-dominated region.
- The government and police response to the growing power of Arambai Tenggol in Manipur raises questions about handling violence and conflicts within the state.

Quick Glance: Election Redo in Manipur Due to Violence
- In Manipur, a northeastern state troubled by ethnic unrest, voting booths were raided and fake ballots were cast.
- India's election authorities have instructed officials to redo voting at various polling locations in the troubled northeastern state of Manipur after armed men attacked polling stations and seized voting booths despite the presence of paramilitary soldiers.
- The conflict in Manipur, which began last May, has essentially divided the region, home to about three million people, pitting two ethnic groups against each other: the mostly Hindu Meiteis, who are a narrow majority, and members of Christian hill tribes known as Kukis.
- Following reports from the region's election commissioner describing mob violence, gunfire, damage to electronic voting machines, and fake voters entering the booths, voting will be repeated at 11 polling stations.

Quick Glance: Building Commences on High-Speed Rail Line Between Sin City and City of Angels
- Work is set to begin on a $12 billion high-speed passenger rail line between Las Vegas and the Los Angeles area.
- Brightline West aims to lay 218 miles of new track between a terminal south of the Las Vegas Strip and a new facility in Rancho Cucamonga, California.
- The project is touted as the nation's first true high-speed passenger rail line, designed to reach speeds of 186 mph comparable to Japan’s Shinkansen bullet trains.
- The trains will offer restrooms, Wi-Fi, food and beverage sales, and luggage check options, with an expected 11 million passengers per year and fares well below airline travel costs.
