NDA ally Kuki People’s Alliance withdraws support to Biren Singh government in Manipur

The Kuki People’s Alliance (KPA), a political party formed ahead of the 2022 Manipur election has withdrawn support from the BJP-led government in the State. 

In a letter to Manipur Governor Anusuiya Uikey on August 6, party president Tongmang Haokip said aligning with the government headed by Chief Minister Nongthombam Biren Singh was “no longer fructuous” in view of the “current conflagration”.
