Manipur aims to resettle 40,000 IDPs by March 31
The Manipur government wants to help more than 40,000 people who had to leave their homes go back by the end of March 2026.
These people, called IDPs, had to leave because of fights between different groups in the state.
The government has already helped some people go back and has given money to build new houses.
They are working hard to make sure everyone has a safe place to live and can go back to school or work.
However, the Congress party says the government is not doing a good job and is not helping these people quickly enough.
Manipur government aims to resettle over 40,000 IDPs by March 31, 2026.
16,500 IDPs have already been resettled in the state.
A state-level committee is monitoring the rehabilitation process.
Around 7,000 houses have been sanctioned for reconstruction under the Special PMAY-G.
The government has released about Rs 124 crore for the resettlement of IDPs.
