President's Rule Imposed in Manipur
The New Indian Express Vijayawada
|February 14, 2025
President's rule was imposed in strife-torn Manipur on Thursday and the state assembly put under suspended animation days after Chief Minister N Biren Singh resigned, leading to a political vacuum in the state.
Singh had resigned on February 9 after meeting Union Home Minister Amit Shah. The decision to impose President's rule was taken after Governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla sent a report to President Droupadi Murmu. A notification by the Ministry of Home Affairs on behalf of Rashtrapati Bhavan said, "In exercise of powers conferred by Article 356 of the Constitution, I assume as President all functions of the government of Manipur."
