The meeting occurred in the Prime Minister’s office, where Y Khemchand Singh thanked Modi for his visionary leadership and highlighted Manipur’s need for sustained peace.
Singh said the PM’s support inspires the BJP administration in Manipur to pursue a ‘Viksit Manipur’ agenda, aiming to boost inclusive prosperity across the state’s 32 districts.
Manipur has grappled with insurgent activity and inter-ethnic tensions for decades; the CM stressed that a coordinated security‑development strategy is essential to break the cycle of violence.
In Imphal’s outskirts, a farmer named Renu Devi recalls how new road links opened after the state’s last major infrastructure push, noting that similar projects could reduce migration from rural villages.
Following the meeting, Singh announced a comprehensive plan to be unveiled next month, outlining targeted investment in education, healthcare, and local industry as steps toward lasting stability.
