Imphal: Chief Minister of Manipur, N. Biren Singh visited RIMS and checked on the conditions of the state security personnel and BSF jawan injured during the tragic attack at Moreh, Tengnoupal district on Tuesday. The Chief Minister also spoke with the families of the injured personnel.
Speaking on the sidelines of the visit, the Chief Minister said that it is unfortunate, but fortunately, the personnel were not seriously injured.
Pointing at the intensity of attack during which the personnel were injured, the Chief Minister continued that it has proved that the terrorists are using very sophisticated weapons. The Central forces and State forces are countering them. He added search operations and combing operations are widely going on, and reinforcements have also been sent.
Biren Singh also expressed a firm commitment to the people that the government will not succumb to such threats and pressure and will take necessary measures to counter such terrorist activities.
Meanwhile, the Chief Minister also visited Raj Medicity and met those injured during an unfortunate incident at Lilong on Monday.
Stating that Manipur is passing through a very crucial period, the Chief Minister questioned the rationality in inciting hatred and fighting among the people instead of unitedly facing those who are trying hard to break the State apart.
He further reiterated his stance to come out strongly against anyone taking the law into their own hands and said that the government will not remain silent and take action against anyone taking the law into their own hands. These elements should be held responsible if the government takes any stringent action including re-imposition of the unwanted AFSPA.
He called on the people to identify the enemies of Manipur and to face them unitedly.
