According to Pratidin Time, Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh has announced the immediate reopening of National Highways across the state to facilitate the unrestricted movement of all communities. The announcement was made during a visit to the Kangpokpi District Headquarters, where the Chief Minister was joined by Deputy Chief Minister Nemcha Kipgen and Saitu MLA Haokholet Kipgen.
In addition to the reopening of the highways, officials confirmed that the bus service connecting Imphal and Dimapur is expected to resume operations in the near future. This initiative is part of a broader effort by the state government to restore normalcy and promote development in the region following a period of unrest that had disrupted transportation and daily life.
The reopening of these key transit routes is viewed as a critical step toward stabilizing the state's economy and ensuring the free flow of essential goods and services. The government’s outreach at the district level underscores an attempt to engage directly with local stakeholders to maintain peace and facilitate the resumption of public infrastructure services.
