Guwahati, July 25: The resolution to extend President’s Rule in Manipur by another six months has been introduced in the Rajya Sabha by Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
The resolution stated: “That this House approves the continuance in force of the Proclamation dated the 13th February 2025 in respect of Manipur, issued under Article 356 of the Constitution by the President, for a further period of six months with effect from 13 August 2025.”
President’s Rule was first imposed in the state on February 13, 2025, following prolonged ethnic violence and a breakdown of administrative machinery.
The resolution must be moved, debated, and passed in the Rajya Sabha. It will then be sent to the Lok Sabha, where a similar process occurs. Only after approval from both Houses will the extension come into effect.
