Y Khemchand Singh was elected as the leader of the BJP legislature party in Manipur on Tuesday, setting the stage for him to become the chief minister of the northeastern state. Singh's leadership paves the way for the formation of a new popular government.
Nemcha Kipgen, a prominent Kuki leader and former minister, is likely to be named as the deputy chief minister. This development comes amid ongoing efforts to establish a stable government following an extended period of President's rule.
The decision emerged from a gathering of BJP MLAs, alongside key figures such as former chief minister N Biren Singh and BJP state president A Sharda Devi. The move is seen as a strategic step towards uniting the fractured Meitei and Kuki communities and steering Manipur towards political stability.
