Manipur Govt Warns of Public Hardship Over NRC, Census Agitation

The Manipur government has urged the JFD to call off its agitation over the National Register of Citizens (NRC) and census, warning of public hardship. The government spokespersons and MLAs Th.

The state government has reaffirmed its resolution to conduct the NRC before the census and has conveyed this to the Central Government. The JFD has intensified its agitation, calling for the closure of government offices, which may lead to undesirable incidents and affect the functioning of the state government. The government urged the JFD to give peace a chance in Manipur and support the efforts of the state government.
