GUWAHATI A Manipur BJP legislator has appealed to Home Minister Amit Shah to fence Mizoram’s border with Myanmar in view of the Mizoram government’s decision not to collect the biometrics of refugees from the civil war-torn neighbouring country.
In his letter on October 3, Rajkumar Imo Singh said Manipur needs to be shielded from “illegal migrants” with the involvement of “foreign terror groups” in the State’s ethnic conflict becoming apparent.
He said the people of Manipur are pleased that the Ministry of Home Affairs has extended the date for detecting illegal migrants to March 2024.
