Imphal/Aizawl: Manipur CM N Biren Singh on Tuesday asked his newly elected Mizoram counterpart, Lalhuhoma, “not to interfere with Manipur’s internal matter” over a purported remark by the latter.Talking to the media at the state-level Nupi Lan Day, which is observed to honour the brave Imas (mothers) who fought against the autocratic policies of the British in Manipur in two Nup Lan episodes (women uprisings) here, Biren said, “I have seen one comment from him (Lalduhoma) that the state (Manipur) police should not harass his people in Moreh. It is a little bid beyond the Constitution because it is an internal matter of the Manipur state government.”When TOI reached out to Lalduhoma, he denied making any such statement. He said, “I have never talked with the Manipur chief minister. I have also not said anything in regard to what Biren Singh said about a statement about the Manipur Police and the people of Moreh.”Moreh in Manipur’s Tengnoupal district bordering restive Myanmar has witnessed sporadic violence since the ethnic conflict began in the state on May 3 this year. “Actually, as per the Constitution, we are having our own state. Whatever is happening in the state of Manipur is an internal matter of the Manipur government and the Manipur state,” Biren added.He said most of his colleagues from the neighbouring states have called him and asked about the situation in Manipur. “He (Mizoram CM) does not know what is actually happening in Moreh. There in Moreh many communities are living, Meities are living there, Tamils are living there, Meitei Pangals are living there, Kukis are living there, Thadous are living there, they cannot take it as a community’s area,” Biren added. The Manipur CM further said he has never made any comment on the Bru controversy in Mizoram.
