The Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee has blamed the central BJP‑led administration for worsening the long‑standing Kuki‑Naga conflict in the state’s hill districts.
The Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) issued a statement today accusing the central government, led by the Bharatiya Janata Party, of exacerbating the Kuki‑Naga tensions that have plagued the state’s hill districts for years.
MPCC leaders argued that policies and actions taken by the BJP‑led administration have intensified the dispute, leading to increased insecurity and unrest among the tribal communities.
The statement called for urgent intervention and dialogue to deescalate the situation and restore peace in the affected areas.
No specific incidents or dates were cited in the MPCC’s remarks, but the party’s criticism reflects growing concerns over the handling of ethnic conflicts in Manipur.
The central government has yet to respond to the MPCC’s allegations.
