Centre Extends Manipur President's Rule for Additional Six Months
The Indian government decided to keep President's Rule in Manipur for another six months.
This means the central government will continue to run the state instead of local leaders.
The decision was made in the Rajya Sabha, a part of the Indian government.
President's Rule started in February 2025 after the previous government was removed due to ongoing ethnic violence and instability.
The government plans to use this time to bring back order and see when elections can happen again.
The Centre extended President's Rule in Manipur for six months.
The extension will be effective from August 13, 2025.
The resolution was moved by Union Home Minister Amit Shah in the Rajya Sabha.
President's Rule was initially imposed on February 13, 2025.
The government aims to stabilize law-and-order and assess election feasibility.
