Government Acts to Restore Normalcy in Manipur
Union Home Minister Amit Shah has issued strict directives to security forces to ensure the unhindered movement of people on all roads in Manipur starting from March 8, 2025. This comes as part of a broader strategy to restore order in the violence-hit northeastern state.
Key Decisions from the High-Level Security Meeting
Ensuring Free Travel for Citizens
The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has instructed security forces to remove all barriers to free movement in Manipur:
- All roads will be accessible to the public from March 8, with security forces ensuring smooth movement.
- Strict action against disruptions – Any individual or group attempting to obstruct roadways will face legal consequences.
- Enhanced monitoring – Additional personnel will be deployed to critical areas to prevent further unrest.
Why This Move is Crucial?
Manipur has faced prolonged ethnic violence since May 2023, leading to massive unrest. The state has been under President’s rule since February 13, 2025, following the resignation of Chief Minister N. Biren Singh. More than 250 lives have been lost, and movement across several districts has been severely restricted.
Strengthening Border Security
To curb illegal activities, the government is intensifying border security:
