Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh on April 28 stated that peace is essential for the state’s development, emphasizing that the government is making every effort to restore normalcy through dialogue and discussions.
He made these remarks while attending the inauguration of the Ebudhou Phunal Ningthou Telheiba–Santhok Ningthou Apanba event, organized by the Lai Haraoba & Village Development Authority (LHVDA) at Chanam Sandrok.
Referring to the recent Tronglaobi incident, where two children lost their lives, the Chief Minister said the tragedy had deeply affected people across all communities. He added that the government is working to ensure free movement on highways and to bring back peace through continuous dialogue.
Singh also mentioned that the case has been handed over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), assuring that those responsible will be brought to justice.
On the development front, he said that proposals previously submitted by the local MLA of Keirao Assembly Constituency would be fast-tracked. He also expressed his plan to revisit the constituency to review the progress of development works.
The Chief Minister felicitated five candidates from the constituency who successfully cleared the Manipur Public Service Commission (MPSC) examination, stating that dedication and hard work lead to success regardless of one’s background.
Keirao MLA Lourembam Rameshwor Meetei said that the Chief Minister’s visits to various districts, both in the hills and the valley, demonstrate the government’s commitment to restoring normalcy in the state.
The event was attended by members of the LHVDA and local residents.
