Emotional scenes that unfolded as Singson's loved ones paid their respects to the deceased, NDTV reports.

The convoy carrying her body to Kangpokpi in Manipur made a stop in the Nagaland capital, allowing members of the Kuki community to bid her a final farewell.

At Dimapur airport, a reception was held in honour of Singson, with officials and community representatives paying tribute to her memory.

Floral tributes were also offered, and condolences were extended to her bereaved family.

Singson's relocation to Kangpokpi from Imphal in 2023 was a result of the ethnic unrest that had taken over the state.

Despite the distance, her roots and community ties remained strong, and thousands gathered to pay their respects to the young lady.

Plans are also reportedly underway for her last rites, which would be held in accordance with traditional customs.
