Amit Shah will visit Violence-Hit Manipur on May 29 to work to end ethnic issues

Union Home Minister Amit Shah is due to travel to violence-stricken Manipur on May 29 to resolve the ongoing ethnic crisis. Union State Minister for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai said so during a press conference here on Thursday evening. “Union Home Minister Amit Shah would stay for three days and work to end the ethnic crisis and bring justice to everyone,” Rai said.

“We will talk with people in different places and listen to their views and opinions,” Rai said. Recent unrest has only hampered development, Rai said, adding that calm and peace had prevailed for the past nine years, with no blockades and few bandhs.

Rai said all issues and problems would be resolved peacefully and people should have confidence in the government and avoid all forms of violence.
