The state government is asking the Centre to employ state machinery for the management of border areas."
Earlier on December 25, Singh has stated a need for "immediate peace" in the state. Speaking at the Good Governance Day programme in Imphal, the Manipur chief minister asserted that BJP can save Manipur and resolve the conflict in the state.
"What is happening in Manipur today has many reasons. Today, those who have been trying to divide the state are asking what the government is doing...they are hungry for power," Singh said adding that the BJP is "not against any particular community. The stand of the BJP is clear. We believe in the idea of living together. We have already started to build relations between the police and the people."
"Only BJP can save Manipur...BJP leaders have a high sense of nationalism and social justice. They do reality-based politics in the interests of the nation....if I am not given a ticket by the BJP, I will remain with the party," Singh added further.
Manipur has been in conflict since May 2023, sparked by ethnic clashes between the Meitei and Kuki-Zo tribes. Over 60,000 people have been displaced, and hundreds have been killed.
