Manipur BJP MLA asserts party will regain power in 2027

Guwahati: Manipur BJP MLA Thokchom Radheshyam Singh has asserted that the Bharatiya Janata Party will decisively return to power in the 2027 state assembly elections.

Addressing a gathering at his residence in the Heirok constituency, the MLA told supporters that they must not doubt the party’s political strength.

“People say the BJP may not come back, but everyone should understand that the party will certainly form the government in 2027. There should be no hesitation or fear about this,” Singh declared.

He argued that recent setbacks should not be blamed on the party itself. Drawing an analogy, he said, “If the driver is not skilled, you cannot blame the vehicle or its company.”

He emphasised that while some individuals within the organisation may have contributed to the current situation, the BJP as a party “has not done anything wrong” and remains a strong force in Manipur.

Singh added that “a few leaders have damaged the state,” distancing the party’s core organisation from decisions taken by certain members.

His remarks come amid prolonged unrest and political instability in Manipur, circumstances that opposition parties have repeatedly used to question the BJP’s ability to restore order. Despite this, Singh maintained that the BJP continues to enjoy substantial public support and will successfully reclaim power when voters return to the polls in 2027.
