Manipur CM demands protection of State boundaries
Assam Tribune | IANS | Imphal, Jan 18 ():
Manipur Chief Minister Okram Ibobi Singh has asked the central government to amend Article 3 of the constitution to ensure that the boundaries of Manipur state are not altered in attempts made to resolve the six-decade Naga insurgency problem.
Article 3 deals with the formation of a new state by separation of territory from any state, or by uniting two or more states or parts of states.
Ibobi, who led an all-party delegation from Manipur, met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde Thursday evening, asking them to amend Article 3 of the constitution by adding a proviso for a "long-term commitment" to ensure the state boundaries of Manipur are not disturbed.
