Despite the presence of a large number of insurgent groups in the state, Manipur witnessed the least number of encounters between militants and security forces in the last year, as compared to previous years, even as people of the state prayed for a peaceful and prosperous 2012.
In his New Year greeting to the people of the state, governor Gurbachan Jagat said he wished 2012 would bring peace, bonhomie and harmony in the lives of all the people of Manipur.
Chief minister O Ibobi Singh's New Year message was on similar lines and said, "The New Year gives us a chance to renew our resolve to strive for individual as well as collective well-being." He further wished this year would bring peace, prosperity and happiness to all the people of Manipur.
With a new year beginning, I pray to god to restore peace and communal harmony in Manipur and set the state on the path of development. We also fervently appeal to all concerned not to impose economic blockades on the national highways in the coming year. We suffered tremendous hardships during the 120-day-long blockade in 2011
