Speaking to the media at the group’s office in Imphal, Taragi Cheishu chairman Khaidem Mani highlighted that thousands of Manipuris affected by the crisis are placing their hopes on the ensuing parliamentary election as a decisive moment to rectify the state’s issue.

“This is a critical moment to choose the right political leaders who can represent the Manipuri aspirations from both the inner and outer Parliamentary constituencies,” he said.

He pointed out that the election called for a strong political leadership who could look beyond the communal divide and conjure an acceptable objective.
