    Manipur violence: RJD MP Manoj Jha writes to Murmu over, calls for imposition of Prez rule

    Expressing concern over the violence in Manipur, RJD MP Manoj Jha wrote to President Droupadi Murmu on Friday calling for the imposition of president's rule there, alleging that the state government has "failed" to maintain law and order. "Manipur has a complex ethnic and political landscape, with several communities living in the region. Ethnic conflicts with their roots in the colonial era have been a significant challenge for the state. The demand for Scheduled Tribe status for the Meitei community has been a contentious issue, with other communities in Manipur opposing it. This issue has led to violence and protests in the past, and the recent escalation of violence is a matter of grave concern," the RJD spokesperson said.

    The situation has only worsened recently due to the partisan attitude of the state government and its complete failure to maintain law and order, he alleged. "You might be aware that the violence has affected innocent civilians, disrupted normal life and created an atmosphere of fear and insecurity. Majoritarian violence in one state of the country conveys impunity for similar violence in the rest of the country and provides encouragement to destabilizing forces. I, therefore, urge you to consider imposing the President's Rule in Manipur," Jha said in his letter to Murmu.

    The imposition of the president's rule is a measure of the last resort, he said and added that he believes that in the current situation, it is necessary to protect the lives and property of the people of Manipur.
