Speculation Rises: Will Manipur Government Fall in Wake of Kuki People’s Alliance's Withdrawal?
Kuki People’s Alliance Takes a Stand Against Manipur CM Biren Singh's Government
Imphal, Manipur: In a significant political development, the Kuki People’s Alliance (KPA) has formally withdrawn its support from the government of Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh. The announcement was made via an official letter sent to Manipur Governor Anusuiya Uikey.

The General Secretary of the Kuki People’s Alliance, WL Hangshing, confirmed the withdrawal of support in an email communication with ANI. The decision follows a period of careful evaluation and deliberation.

The official communication, dated Sunday, August 6th, 2023, expresses the KPA's decision to discontinue its backing for the incumbent government led by Chief Minister N. Biren Singh. The decision is attributed to the prevailing circumstances and the current state of affairs.

In the letter addressed to the Manipur Governor, the Kuki People's Alliance highlights that the continued support for the existing government has ceased to yield meaningful results. Consequently, the KPA formally withdraws its backing, rendering any prior support null and void.

Despite this withdrawal of support, it's important to note that the BJP already holds a majority of 37 MLAs on its own, ensuring the stability of the Manipur government led by Chief Minister N. Biren Singh.

The President of the Kuki People’s Alliance, Tongmang Haokip, has appended his signature to the letter, officially signifying the organization's decision.

This move by the Kuki People’s Alliance has the potential to reshape the political landscape of Manipur. The withdrawal of support from the incumbent government could lead to a series of developments that might have far-reaching implications.

As the situation unfolds, political analysts and experts will be closely observing the aftermath of this decision, with potential ramifications for both the KPA and the government of Manipur.
