Amid rising tensions in Manipur, 27 MLAs of the BJP-led NDA in the state have adopted a resolution calling for a “mass operation” against Kuki militants responsible for the recent killings in Jiribam district.
In a meeting held on Monday night, the legislators demanded immediate action within seven days, following the deaths of three women and three children.
The resolution also called for the Kuki militants to be declared an “unlawful organisation” within seven days and for the case to be handed over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
The MLAs have also urged the Centre to review the imposition of the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act (AFSPA) in the region, as per the directive issued on November 14.
They said that if these resolutions are not acted upon within the specified period, the NDA legislators will consult with the people of Manipur to decide the next course of action.
The MLAs also condemned the attacks on ministers’ and MLAs’ properties and legal action will be initiated based on the findings of the high powered committee.
