The BJP took a decisive step towards government formation in Manipur by appointing its National General Secretary Tarun Chugh as the Central Observer for the election of the Legislative Party Leader in the state.

The move signals that the party is preparing to restore an elected government ahead of the expiry of President’s Rule.

Senior leaders and legislators from the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA), along with BJP’s Manipur unit chief, arrived in New Delhi on Sunday to attend a high-level meeting scheduled today.

The meeting comes just days before the six-month extension of President’s Rule in Manipur ends on February 12, intensifying political activity around the formation of a new government.
