The leaders, including ex-CM Biren Singh, met with Sambit Patra, the BJP's Northeast in-charge, urging him to push the high command to form the state govt.
Caretaker CM N. Biren Singh says all BJP MLAs working to ensure peace, normalcy in Manipur; rules out possibility of legislators breaking away, floating own regional parties.
The BJP in Manipur is currently divided into 2 factions—one supporting caretaker CM Biren Singh and the other led by Assembly Speaker Thokchom Satyabrata Singh, who opposes him.
Singh will remain in office until 'alternative arrangements' are made. His resignation came just a day before the now-cancelled state assembly session.
In Episode 1563 of #CutTheClutter, Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta and Deputy Editor Moushumi Das Gupta discuss the growing challenges in the northeastern state as the crisis festers.
After Mizo National Front demanded that Biren Singh step down from CM's chair, the Manipur govt called it 'anti-national', saying the MNF has consistently opposed the fencing of the Indo-Myanmar border.
Multiple BJP MLAs skipped a key meeting at CM’s residence Monday. While Kuki BJP MLA’s were already demanding his removal, some Meiteis have joined the chorus now, it is learnt.
Meghalaya CM and NPP chief Conrad Sangma wrote to BJP national president Nadda conveying party’s decision. NPP local unit says ‘will go as per the wishes of the people in Manipur’.
Armenia has procured significant defence equipment from India, including artillery guns, multi-barrel rocket launchers, air defence system, sniper rifles, weapons locating radars, anti-drone weapons.
The key to fighting a war successfully, or even launching it, is a clear objective. That’s an entirely political call. It isn’t emotional or purely military.
Good riddance. The NPP is an utterly corrupt political party. And it’s first family, the Sangmas of Garo Hills (Meghalaya), are brazen and shameless about their involvement in all sorts of criminal and corrupt acts.
The Union govt must initiate ED and CBI probes against the Sangma family. It’s ill-gotten fortunes must be seized and it’s criminal acts exposed to the honest and hardworking tribal people (whom it claims to represent).
Conrad Sangma’s brother James Sangma is neck deep in corruption. James is involved in all kinds of shady deals. It’s an open secret that Conrad keeps himself clean and the dirty laundry is handled by James. NPP’s finances are taken care of by James Sangma. The Sangma dynasty is infamous as the most corrupt family in Meghalaya.
It’s time Amit Shah lets loose ED and CBI on James Sangma. A few sessions of daylong interrogations by ED/CBI officers will put some sense into Conrad’s head. He is sure to cone around eventually.

Where was this spine all this while? Definitely some ulterior motive here.
