Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached Manipur on Saturday, his first visit since ethnic violence broke out in May 2023. He arrived in Imphal and was welcomed by governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla and chief secretary Puneet Kumar Goel. Due to bad weather and heavy rains, his plan to fly by helicopter to Churachandpur was changed, and he will now travel by road. Modi will attend a meeting at Peace Ground in Churachandpur. Earlier in Mizoram, he inaugurated the Bairabi–Sairang Rail Line and launched projects worth over ₹9,000 crore. Congress leaders Mallikarjun Kharge and Priyanka Gandhi criticized his visit as “late” and “tokenism.” (PC: India Today)
