Three churches were bulldozed during an anti-encroachment drive in Manipur's Imphal. After the demolition, the local Christians gathered and offered prayers on the rubble. One of the churches was built in 1974, said a pastor. The United Christian Forum of North East India (UCFNEI) expressed concern over the incident and urged people to pray for peace.
