BJP MLA of Singjamei Assembly Constituency, Yumnam Khemchand, expressed commendation over the Central Government’s initiatives to restore peace in the state and praised Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s approach to resolving the crisis. He expressed hope that the Minister would take necessary and sensible steps in the coming days.
In a statement, Khemchand wrote that the Central Government has been taking various steps to resolve the crisis in Manipur, which erupted on May 3, 2023, and has now exceeded two years. Among the significant measures taken to restore peace and normalcy in the state, security forces have been conducting search operations to recover illicit arms and ammunition.
Notably, in the past month, a substantial quantity of arms and ammunition was seized from various parts of the valley districts, and recently, a significant cache was recovered from the hill districts as well. These efforts are crucial for maintaining law and order in the state and have instilled a sense of hope and security among the populace.
Furthermore, functionaries of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) are engaging in talks and peace dialogues with leaders and representatives of various stakeholders, including civil society organizations (CSOs). These discussions have been instrumental in catalyzing efforts to bring about peace and normalcy in the state.
Under the able leadership of Hon’ble Union Home Minister Amit Shah Ji, several initiatives have been undertaken as a first step toward resolving the crisis. His responsible and accountable approach to addressing the crisis, which may take considerable time to resolve, is highly commendable. It is hoped that any hardships faced by the people as a result of the crisis will be acknowledged and that necessary steps will be taken sensibly in the coming days.
The efforts of the Governor of Manipur, Ajay Kumar Bhalla, members of the Governor-in-Council, security forces, and concerned officials are also worthy of appreciation.
