Union Home Minister Amit Shah has convened an all-party meeting on June 24 in New Delhi to discuss the situation in the state which has been roiled by ethnic clashes since May 3 that have claimed more than 110 lives and displaced more than 45,000 people.

In a Twitter post Wednesday evening, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Home Affairs said: “Union Home Minister Shri @AmitShah has convened an all party meeting on 24th June at 3 PM in New Delhi to discuss the situation in Manipur.”

The Opposition has questioned the Prime Minister’s silence on the issue and UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi said Wednesday that the violence had left a “deep wound” in the state. Incidentally, a day before the planned meeting, on June 23, leaders from as many as 20 Opposition parties are expected to gather in Patna to work out a strategy to counter the BJP in 2024.

On Wednesday, three persons, including two minors, were injured when a car bomb exploded near Moirang in Bishnupur district on Wednesday evening. The three have been hospitalised.
