Modi vows to turn state into 'symbol of peace'

Modi, who landed amidst heavy rain in Manipur’s capital Imphal on his maiden visit to the state after ethnic clashes erupted in May 2023 between the Meitei and Kuki-Zo communities, described the state as the “ratna” adorning the crown of “mother India” and lauded the role of the “valiant sons” of Manipur in the success of Operation Sindoor.

Modi Saturday unveiled projects worth ₹8,500 crore in Manipur during his first visit to the state after ethnic violence broke out nearly two-and-a-half years ago.

From the Kuki stronghold of Churachandpur, Modi laid the foundation stones for projects worth over ₹7,300 crore.
