Manipur Issue: Shah Seeks Cooperation, PM’s Response Demanded, Deadlock Continues

Home Minister Amit Shah shared a letter on social media, expressing the government’s readiness to discuss the Manipur issue and seeking cooperation from all parties. He emphasized Manipur’s importance as a border state with rich cultural heritage. The BJP’s rule had brought peace and development, but recent incidents of violence arose due to court decisions, particularly regarding the inclusion of the dominant Meiteis in the scheduled tribe list.

The opposition demanded Prime Minister Modi’s statement on the issue before any debate could proceed. While PM Modi condemned the assaults on two women, he did not directly address the larger violence.
