Home Minister Amit Shah today briefed Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the steps taken by the Manipur government and the Centre to restore normalcy in the crisis-hit state.

PM Modi returned to India early this morning after concluding his five-day visit to the US and Egypt.

The briefing comes a day after Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh met Amit Shah at his Delhi home and submitted a report on the “evolving situation” in Manipur.

He told Shah that the state and central governments have been able to control the violence to a “great extent”.

The Home Minister assured the Chief Minister of all possible help.

“It’s time for all the stakeholders, civil bodies, MLAs and political leaders to sit together and identify the areas where all must work,” Mr Singh told reporters after the meeting.

Mr Shah also chaired an all-party meet on Saturday, which was attended by 18 political parties. At the meeting, the party representatives insisted that the Centre put in place a “time-bound action plan” to restore peace in the state.

The Home Minister said that the Prime Minister has been monitoring the situation in the violence-hit state since day one and guiding the authorities with “full sensitivity”.
