Manipur Congress president Keisham Meghachandra on Friday announced that the party will move a no-confidence motion against the N Biren Singh-led government in the state assembly.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Meghachandra wrote, “Brahmastra Missile will surely hit one of the Double Engine! Congress party set to move No Confidence Motion anytime soon.”
The senior Congress leader, however, declined to share further details regarding the motion.
The Congress currently has five MLAs in the 60-member Manipur Assembly. Another opposition party, the National People’s Party (NPP), holds seven seats. Meanwhile, the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has 32 MLAs and is backed by five legislators from the Naga People’s Front (NPF) and six from the Janata Dal (United) [JD(U)]. Additionally, there are three Independent MLAs and two from the Kuki People’s Alliance.
