Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh on Thursday said that infiltrators from across the border and militants have caused the ongoing unrest in the state and it is not an enmity between two communities.
Condemning the Tuesday night firing incident in Imphal East district in which many people were gunned down and several injured, the Chief Minister said that the incident was an act of terrorism.
"Security forces have launched a massive combing operation to nab the perpetrators in Urangpat and Yaingangpokpi areas. We would take stern action against the culprit as per the law," Singh told the media.
He said that all the ministers and MLAs are visiting the districts and are in touch with people and various organisations to restore peace and normalcy while the Peace Committee headed by Governor Anusuiya Uikey would also begin its work soon.
Further, the Chief Minister, once again urges the public to stop blocking security convoy and ambulances.
