JDU's damage control, sacks leader for 'no support to BJP in Manipur' letter

India Today  

The Janata Dal has clarified that it continues to support the N Biren Singh-led BJP government in Manipur, dismissing claims of withdrawing support as "baseless". The party has also sacked its Manipur unit president, Kshetrimayum Biren Singh, for writing a letter reiterating the alleged withdrawal of support without consulting the central leadership. The controversy arose after Kshetrimayum Biren Singh wrote to Manipur Governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla, claiming the JD was reiterating its withdrawal of support to the BJP government and that the party's lone MLA, Md Abdul Nasir, would sit in the Opposition benches. The letter referenced the defection of five of JD's six MLAs to the BJP after the 2022 Manipur Assembly elections and linked the decision to the party's earlier alignment with the INDIA bloc. This development also follows a similar move last year when the Conrad Sangma-led National People's Party withdrew support from the Manipur government.
