In a memorandum submitted to the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, on Tuesday, the group of MLAs stated that the present unrest and violence in the state of Manipur which started on the 3rd of May 2023 has completed 45 days.
More than 100 innocent lives have been lost and valuable properties have been damaged due to the ongoing violence despite many steps that have been taken up to bring the situation under control. However, not much improvement is seen on the ground, the Memorandum stated.
