Mob Justice in Manipur Oil Painting by Monica Ingudam Canvas 11 by 14 inch 2018 Original - Not for sale, Looking to exhibit in Art Gallery.
I started this painting on 14th Sept 2018 filled with such heaviness and pain after watching the videos of mob culture in Manipur questioning myself with How many Farooque has to die? Where is humanity? What are we teaching the kids?
It’s really sad and shocking to watch the videos. He pleaded for water while the mob jeered and mocked. There were laughter around. One of the man straightened Faroogue’s hand as he laid on the ground, seemed unconscious from the previous multiple blows by many people. The man picked up the thick stick aiming right on the palm/hand he straightened with all his might. So much hatred and inhumanity. There were children in the crowd.
I condemn such inhuman act, mob culture we have seen time and again in Manipur. There are many conflicts Manipur is dealing with but this is something we cannot point a finger. A mother has lost his youngson.

Yes, a big question mark. ????? Where is the humanity? Everyone is enjoying the scene as someone’s life is taken. Pathrthic!!! What have we become as human beings. What have made Manipuris so inhuman? Our culture was built of respect, love and tranquility. Have we all lost it? Education and modern civililized generations has brought nothing good to us so far. Extremisim, corruption, extortion has become our way of life. What a shame!!!!!!! Let’s open our eyes and change ourselves.
Wow! You are good! Not only an innovator, a social activist and an advocate for love, peace and harmony but a wonderful painter with profound vision and expression. Kudos, young lady. So proud of you!!!
This is really intense.
Your painting talks.. Hope this painting will works as mirror to the people who can’t imagine what they are doing.. Hope one day there will be no incident of mob lynching. #WakeUpManipur
So strong in the msg….
Very true.
Law taken in hand .
So sad
In Manipur everyone is Judge
To put an end to such unwanted mob violence, we require effective awareness programmes to local Meira Paini and club members.
Right ln manipur every one is judge.

Manipuri mayam amata oina mob lynching ge mayokta leiduna… sigumlab fattraba culture asi muthatlasi. We are with you sister.
My heart couldn’t bear even by this painting. Everyone is coming to this earth for a life of 70 yrs that also not guaranteed. But people having inhuman quality ended the life of my cousin who was growing in front of my eyes. These people will not lead our state to right path. How their children who had seen the mob lynching of my cousin will behave in the future?
this sketch is incomplete as it doesnt depict the silent spectators, those policeman around it…..
Very emotional to see this sketch
Mei Esingna muttariba makhei, Leihawrani Saram chat, chatpa, Tharoijam gi thoudok.
Manipur gi itihaas ta laihauragani asigumba tamthiraba mioibagi minungsi yaudana Farooq ki punsi temsinhankhraba heyy praja Tharoijam kayada wakan pikpa,
Appreciate it. And would also appreciate if the illegal annexation and tortures/rapes/murders by occupational army or police under occupier could also be depicted in your future paintings. Thanks
