Change appears impending in Manipur's political landscape as Speaker Thokchom Satyabrata Singh called for a popular government in the state, which is currently under President's rule.
Singh underscored the inevitability of change, highlighting efforts already underway to replace the President's rule with elected governance amid ongoing ethnic violence. Political groups forming and the anticipated involvement of Delhi signify movement towards an administrative shift.
