Under fire Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh has said that Union Home Minister Amit Shah assured him that those who had kidnapped and killed the two Manipuri youths will be arrested and punished.
As per PTI report, A team of CBI officials, led by the agency’s Special Director Ajay Bhatnagar, has reached Manipur and started the probe into the crime which has rocked Imphal valley and led to two days of violent protests by students and youths on the streets of the state capital, leading to more than 60 people being injured.
The chief minister told reporters: “The central and state governments are very serious about this case. Union Home Minister Amit Shah-ji called me up yesterday evening and told me that he is sending a CBI team on a special flight to investigate the particular case.”
Unimpressed by BJP’s total failure, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge Tweeted, For 147 days, people of Manipur are suffering, but PM Modi does not have time to visit the state.
The horrific images of students being targeted in this violence has once again shocked the entire nation.
It is now apparent that violence against women and children was weaponised in this strife.
The beautiful state of Manipur has been turned into a battlefield, all because of the BJP !
High time, PM Modi sacks BJP’s incompetent Manipur Chief Minister. This would be the first step to control any further turmoil.
For 147 days, people of Manipur are suffering, but PM Modi does not have time to visit the state.
The horrific images of students being targeted in this violence has once again shocked the entire nation.
It is now apparent that violence against women and children was weaponised…

Priyanka Chaturvedi, UBT , Rajya Sabha MP Tweeted
The only progress made by the Govt of India and Govt of Manipur is
– to spread the violence across the state rather than limiting/ending
– to declare the entire state as disturbed
– to continue to be not held accountable for the worsening situation in ManipurShameful. pic.twitter.com/Dxe6araBOr
