Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren, who heads the BJP-led coalition government, has demanded the imposition of President’s rule in West Bengal.
At a function in Imphal, he alleged that democracy had been trampled in West Bengal. He was referring to the pre and post election violence in the State.
West Bengal ruling party Trinamool Congress (TMC) is a coalition partner in Manipur. In the 2017 polls, it secured one seat and the MLA, Tongbram Rameswor, extended support to the BJP when Mr. Biren staked his claim to form the government. Mr. Biren had appointed Rameswor the chairman of the Planning and Development Authority. TMC chief and West Bengal Chief Minister had reacted saying, “He did not take our permission to do so”.
