Imphal, Jun 26 (PTI) BJP MLA K Ibomcha on Thursday said the Centre is trying hard to restore normalcy in strife-torn Manipur so that a popular government can be formed in the state.
    He also said all civil society organisations in the state should provide full cooperation to the Centre to ensure a conducive atmosphere, a prerequisite for setting up a popular government.
    "Today, we met with our party's state president A Sharda Devi and discussed various matters, following her recent meeting with BJP president JP Nadda in Delhi," the legislator said.
    In order to form a popular government, a conducive atmosphere needs to exist first, Ibomcha said.
    "The Centre, along with all of us, are trying hard to create a conducive atmosphere. We are witnessing talks between different groups and the Centre. This is also a part of creating a conducive atmosphere. We are all at a crucial step, and the right step can bring a solution to the conflict," Ibomcha said.
    More than 260 people have been killed and thousands rendered homeless in ethnic violence between Meiteis and Kuki-Zo groups since May 2023.
    The Centre had on February 13 imposed the President’s rule in Manipur after Chief Minister N Biren Singh resigned.
    The state assembly, which has a tenure till 2027, has been put under suspended animation.
