The Manipur chief minister further asserted, “With the BJP set to return to power at the Centre, it is imperative that we elect BJP MPs from Manipur to bolster the government led by Prime Minister Modi.”
Addressing concerns about his government's actions, Singh clarified, “Our administration has not targeted any particular community.”
“We have only taken measures against illegal drugs, poppy cultivation, deforestation, and individuals who have entered the state unlawfully,” the Manipur CM said.
In the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, Manipur had two seats, with RK Ranjan Singh winning from Inner Manipur and Lorho S Pfoze from Outer Manipur.
As the parliamentary elections draw near, political parties in Manipur are intensifying their efforts and devising strategies to ensure victory for their candidates.
