Focus on BJP central leadership over next course of action in Manipur

New Delhi: A day after President’s rule was imposed in the northeastern state and the assembly put under suspended animation, all eyes are now on the BJP central leadership over its next step in strife-torn Manipur.
Security has been beefed up across the state following the Centre’s announcement of President’s rule, officials said.

President’s rule was imposed in Manipur and the assembly put under suspended animation on Thursday evening, days after Chief Minister N Biren Singh resigned from his post that led to political uncertainty in the state.
Singh, who was heading the BJP government in Manipur, resigned as chief minister after nearly 21 months of ethnic violence that has claimed over 250 lives so far.
The Manipur assembly has a tenure till 2027.
