Metropolitan Archbishop Peter Machado of Bangalore responded to the Manipur students' cries for help by offering them all-around support. He reassured them that they could continue their education for free in the diocesan and religious schools run by the Bangalore Archdiocese. Archbishop Machado emphasized the preparedness of the entire Archdiocese to care for these displaced people and expressed solidarity with the affected and displaced people of Manipur.

The Jesuit priest from Manipur, Fr. James, spoke on the difficulties experienced by Christians and others in Manipur amid the state's increasing ethnic and sectarian tensions. He discussed his motivations for bringing the students to Bangalore while highlighting the existing social scenario in the Manipur districts with a significant concentration of Christians.

Fr. James decided it was vital to move them to Bangalore, where they would be safer and where some of their relatives and friends lived because houses, institutions, and places of worship are targets for attacks. Archbishop Machado was thanked for receiving the youngsters and giving them housing, education, and support.

A young woman from Manipur named Luni, who now lives and works in Bangalore, described the recent unrest in Manipur as being worse than any civil war she had previously seen. She said they had arrived in Bangalore, where people had greeted them, and she felt relieved and safe.

One of the displaced students, Kennedy, offered his account of the racial and communal unrest and violence in Manipur. He talked about how there was a lot of gunfire when the Governor was there and how his parents now live in fear in Manipur. Kennedy thanked Archbishop Machado for offering them protection, free education, and support, highlighting the Archbishop's function as a father figure to them. He also highlighted how the Archbishop had helped them find employment.

Rev. Fr. Edward Thomas, SDB, the director of Bangalore's Dream India Network, volunteered his aid as needed throughout the conversation. Rev. Fr. Lourdu Xavier Santhosh, the director of Bangalore Multipurpose Social Service Society (BMSSS), and Rev. Sr. Rosali, SSAM, vowed to meet these children's requirements for placement, education, and safe housing.

Overall, the Archdiocese of Bangalore has taken serious steps to support and offer a safe refuge for the young people who have been forcibly evicted from Manipur, providing them with education, accommodation, and help to obtain jobs. The Archbishop and other clergy members have expressed support for the persecuted Christians and pledged to assist these people in their trying circumstances.
