Manipur needs immediate peace, understanding between two communities: CM Biren Singh
New Indian ExpressIMPHAL: Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh on Wednesday said the state, which has been in the grip of ethnic violence since May last year, needs immediate peace and appealed to two communities to reach an understanding. Speaking at the Good Governance Day programme at the state BJP headquarters here, Singh asserted that the saffron party can save the northeastern state as it believes in the idea of living together. Singh said the state government is working hard to meet the requirements of internally displaced people by making committees at several layers of the administration. Instead of looking at the past, we need to focus on the upcoming NRC process, capturing biometrics and 1961 as the base year of the Inner Line Permit," Singh said.
