Cong seeks Prez intervention to restore normalcy in Manipur

Imphal: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Tuesday sought the intervention of President Droupadi Murmu to restore peace, and normalcy and make constitutional machinery functional in Manipur.

Kharge in a letter to the President claimed that both the Union and the state governments have completely failed in restoring peace and normalcy in Manipur during the last 18 months leading to the people of the state having apparently lost confidence in both the governments.

“With every passing day, the people of Manipur are becoming insecure on their own soil. Their home turf has witnessed their infants, babies, children and women getting mercilessly killed. With no succour coming from the governments involved, they are finding themselves completely isolated and helpless for more than 540 days now,” the Congress President said.
