GUWAHATI
The 60-member Manipur Assembly failed to hold a Special Session on Monday to discuss the ongoing ethnic violence as the Raj Bhavan did not issue any notification to convene it despite a recommendation from the State Cabinet.
An official statement on August 4 said the State Cabinet had recommended to Governor Anusuiya Uikey the summoning of the fourth session of the 12th Manipur Legislative Assembly on August 21. This followed a similar request from the State government on July 27.
