He recommended a broader removal of central forces if they continue to act as &#8220;mute spectators,&#8221; suggesting that state forces should take control to achieve peace.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">The legislator has also advocated for transferring the Unified Command authority to the Manipur government, led by Chief Minister N Biren Singh, arguing that local leadership could more effectively manage the crisis. Singh criticized the current security arrangements as unsuccessful in halting the persistent violence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Moreover, Singh called for stringent measures against militant and insurgent groups violating the Suspension of Operations (SOO) agreement. He urged the Central government to revoke these agreements, claiming they exacerbate the violence. Additionally, he demanded an investigation into the funding and supply of arms and ammunition, which he believes are intensifying the conflict.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Singh emphasized the need for political dialogue among all stakeholders to achieve a lasting and peaceful resolution. He concluded by urging the Central government to take decisive actions to ensure peace and normalcy in Manipur.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rajkumar Imo Singh, a BJP legislator from Manipur, has called on the Central government to withdraw central security forces from the state, citing their ineffectiveness in curbing the ongoing violence.
