The body of Lamnunthem Singson did not return to Imphal. It came home, but not through the state capital, its corridors of power and protocol. Instead, it crossed into Manipur through Nagaland바카라s Dimapur Airport, nearly 200 kilometres away from her family바카라s home in Kangpokpi. From there, it traced the winding roads of Nagaland and northern Manipur quietly and deliberately, bypassing the Valley and arriving far from the coordinates of official mourning.
