Manipur’s other ‘Iron Lady’

In the 2012 Manipur assembly election,when Chief Minister Ibobi Singh decided to contest from two constituencies — his own Khangabok and Thoubal — he was at the pinnacle of his chequered career that began as a petty contractor. His greatest deed of bravery was to successfully prevent NSCN(IM) general-secretary Th Muivah from entering Manipur in 2010 to visit his native village Somdal in Ukhrul district. This despite the fact that the Centre had requested him to arrange security arrangement for Muivah’s visit.

Interesting observation from Sen Not a political statement
