The correct answer is A. Manipur.
Irom Chanu Sharmila is an Indian civil rights activist who has been on a hunger strike since November 2, 2000, to demand the repeal of the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA), which gives Indian security forces sweeping powers to arrest, search, and kill without fear of reprisal. She is known as the “Iron Lady of Manipur” for her courage and determination.
The AFSPA was enacted in 1958 to deal with the Naga insurgency in Nagaland. It has since been extended to other states in the Northeast, including Manipur. The act has been widely criticized for its human rights abuses, including extrajudicial killings, torture, and rape.
Sharmila’s hunger strike has drawn international attention to the AFSPA and the human rights situation in Manipur. She has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize several times. In 2016, she was released from prison after the Manipur government dropped charges against her. She continues to campaign for the repeal of the AFSPA.
The other options are incorrect because Irom Chanu Sharmila is not from those states.
