Manipur govt urges centre to withdraw AFSPA

India TV News  

The Manipur government has formally requested the Centre to reconsider and withdraw the reimposition of the Armed Forces Act from areas under the jurisdiction of six police stations in the state. This development follows the recent notification from the Ministry of Home Affairs on November 14, 2024, reimposing AFSPA in the regions of Sekmai, Lamsang, Lamlai, Moirang, Leimakhong, and Jiribam due to ongoing security concerns. AFSPA grants extraordinary powers to the armed forces, including the authority to arrest, search, and use force, including lethal force, if deemed necessary for maintaining public order. While AFSPA remains a contentious issue in Manipur, this recent move by the state government signals a desire to pursue a more peaceful and negotiated approach to security and governance.
