Manipur's Yumnam Khemchand Singh-led NDA government secured a floor test victory. This occurred amidst significant protests and threats against Kuki Zo MLAs joining the new administration. Community organizations have called for shutdowns in Kuki Zo areas. Nemcha Kipgen, a Kuki Zo MLA, took oath virtually due to security concerns. The Kuki Zo community has been demanding separate administration.
