Union Home Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to visit Manipur in early October to oversee developmental projects, including laying the foundation stone for the Senapati Medical College. This visit follows a meeting in New Delhi with Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh, where the Home Minister pledged that the central government would “fulfill the aspirations of the people of Manipur.”

The planned visit takes place amidst political tensions involving Meitei and Naga community demands for the implementation of the National Register of Citizens (NRC) prior to the upcoming Census. Additionally, the state government has recently addressed security concerns following the killing of four civilians in Kangpokpi district, issuing warnings against the possession of illegal weapons and the unauthorized carrying of arms by militant cadres under Suspension of Operation (SoO) agreements.
