Manipur govt failed to maintain law and order: Ibobi
Imphal, Sep 17 (PTI) Manipur Congress president Okram Ibobi Singh on Thursday accused the state government of failing to exercise its constitutional responsibility of maintaining law and order.
Speaking at a programme organised to welcome new members into the party, Singh said that though law and order is a state subject under the Constitution, the Manipur government failed to discharge its duties.
The three-time chief minister said that after violence broke out in May 2023, the Centre should have given the state government two or three months to contain the situation.
