Manipur CM Yumnam Khemchand Singh Meets PM Modi; Discusses State’s Development

Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi on Saturday to discuss issues concerning the northeastern state, officials said.

Following the meeting, Singh shared a post on his official X account, expressing appreciation for the Prime Minister’s leadership and commitment to Manipur’s development.

“It was a privilege to meet the Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri @narendramodi ji, in New Delhi today. I deeply appreciate his visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to the development of Manipur. Guided by his leadership, our government remains steadfast in its resolve to advance lasting peace, stability, and inclusive prosperity for the people of Manipur,” he posted.

Khemchand Singh has been in the national capital since October 10 to discuss the state’s priorities with the Centre. During his visit, he met Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari, and Youth Affairs and Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya.

Officials said all three Ministers indicated that they would visit Manipur soon.

During his meeting with Singh on Thursday, Shah assured the Chief Minister of the Centre’s full support in restoring peace, promoting development and addressing the aspirations of the people of Manipur.

A senior official from the Chief Minister’s Office in Imphal said Shah acknowledged the state government’s ongoing efforts to restore normalcy.

Singh briefed the Home Minister on measures taken by the state government to improve the situation, including the resumption of the Imphal–Dimapur–Guwahati bus service.

Inter-state passenger bus services connecting Manipur, Assam and Nagaland resumed on August 21 after remaining suspended for more than three years.

The restoration has improved connectivity and eased travel for residents across the three northeastern states.
