Kuki Inpi Directs Kuki-Zo MLAs to Boycott Manipur Assembly Session Amid Crisis
The Kuki Inpi Manipur (KIM), representing the Kuki community, has directed all Kuki-Zo MLAs to boycott the Manipur Assembly session from September 2 to 7 amid the ongoing political crisis. KIM warned that attending could signal a return to normalcy and weaken demands for a separate political administration. The community holds nine seats, including Deputy Chief Minister Nemcha Kipgen and six BJP MLAs. The individual legislators' responses to the directive remain uncertain.
