The ongoing unrest in Manipur, marked by violent clashes between the Kuki and Meitei communities, has taken a new turn with allegations leveled against the state's Chief Minister, N Biren Singh. Kuki MLAs, representatives of the Kuki community, have accused Singh of being the mastermind behind the violence and have further alleged that the Solicitor General of India has been misleading the Supreme Court in order to shield the Chief Minister from scrutiny.
The Kuki MLAs' accusations stem from a leaked audio tape that, according to them, implicates Biren Singh in the violence. They believe that the Solicitor General's statements to the Supreme Court are aimed at preventing a thorough investigation into the leaked tape and its contents. The MLAs are demanding a fair and impartial probe into the matter, arguing that the Supreme Court should not accept the Solicitor General's claims at face value.
This latest development further intensifies the political tensions in Manipur. The Kuki MLAs' accusations have raised serious concerns about the role of the state government in the ongoing violence. The Supreme Court, faced with these accusations, is now under pressure to ensure a transparent and independent investigation into the alleged involvement of the Chief Minister and the Solicitor General's actions.
