Manipur CM Calls for Meitei Leadership to Restore Peace Amid Multi-Community Crisis
Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh urged the Meitei community to act as elder siblings to help end the ongoing multi-community crisis involving Meiteis, Kukis, and Nagas. He emphasized that blaming an entire community for the actions of a few is unethical and highlighted efforts to restore trust and harmony among communities. Singh recalled past cooperation with MLA Letzamang Haokip in protecting Meitei labourers and noted that Jiribam district has returned to peaceful coexistence. The government supports implementing the National Register of Citizens in the state.
