The delegation is scheduled to meet Central leaders in New Delhi and seek their intervention on demands concerning the implementation of the NRC and the conduct of the Census.
Representatives of the organisations said the delegation would place their concerns before Central leaders and seek clarity and action on the issues during the meetings.
The delegation’s visit comes amid continued discussions in Manipur over the NRC and Census, with civil society groups seeking central government intervention on the two issues.
