Imphal, July 16 2020:
Trouble in the BJP-led coalition government under Chief Minister N.Biren Singh has been slowly settling to normalcy with aggrieved MLAs shorting out all misunderstandings with the ruling coalition government.
Thanga Assembly constituency MLA, Tongbram Robindro, whose disqualification ahead of the Rajya Sabha Election held on June 19 by the Speaker's Tribunal has been intervened by the High court by suspending the disqualification order, while speaking to media persons today declared that issues and misunderstanding between him and the ruling BJP -led coalition government has been amicably resolved.
"I will continue to extend full support to the present BJP-led government as all issues and misunderstanding have been amicably settled", MLA Tongbram Robindro told media persons today.
Mentioned may be that Tongbram Robindro reportedly withdrew support to the ruling BJP-led coalition government ahead of the Rajya Sabha Election and news report regarding the withdrawal of support had been carried at almost print and electronic media in the state.
Following that the Speaker's Tribunal of the Manipur Legislative Assembly disqualified him along with 4 other Congress MLAs disallowing them to caste vote in the Rajya Sabha Election.
One among the 4 Congress MLA (P Brojen) appealed to the High Court of Manipur and later was allowed to cast his vote.
MLA Robindro too filed a petition to the High Court, however, due to technical reasons he missed Court intervention and could not cast his vote to the election for the lone Rajya Sabha seat.
On July 10, a division bench of the Manipur High Court comprising of Justice Lanusungkum Jamir and Justice Ahanthem Bimol Singh today suspended the disqualification MLA Tongbram Robindro by the Speaker's Tribunal of the Manipur Legislative Assembly until the next hearing of the case that was scheduled on July 20, 2020 .
