Khemchand Calls to Halt Community-Based Identification

Khemchand, a prominent political figure in Manipur, has publicly called for the discontinuation of community-based identification systems. In a statement reported by The Sangai Express, he argued that such practices undermine individual rights and perpetuate discrimination. The call comes amid growing concerns over the fairness of identity verification methods used in electoral and welfare processes. Khemchand’s stance has sparked debate among policymakers and civil society groups about the need for more inclusive and transparent identification protocols. While the government has yet to respond, the issue is expected to feature prominently in upcoming legislative discussions.
