Speaking to the media on the sidelines of the extended executive meeting of the state BJP, he said the Prime Minister's visit to Manipur is not an issue and depends on the situation and criticized some sections who were making it an issue.

Biren Singh, who holds the Home portfolio, said, "We are in round-the-clock touch with the Prime Minister and are working under his guidance. All security-related, relief and other operations are being planned and executed as per the Prime Minister's instructions." Advice and approval of the Minister."

The Chief Minister also revealed that efforts for reconciliation are underway between the Meitai and Kuki-Zo communities to resolve the ethnic crisis.

The Manipur Chief Minister's statement comes two days after Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi's one-day visit to the caste violence-hit state. Gandhi urged the Prime Minister to come to Manipur and talk to the people who are suffering from the ethnic conflict since May last year.
