MLAs from Manipur suggest using CSF instead of Assam Rifles

A group of 31 Manipur MLAs unanimously resolved to demand Union Home Minister Amit Shah to reach a conclusive resolution that will bring lasting peace in the state.

The MLAs proposed the Union home minister to replace the 9th Assam Rifles, the 22nd Assam Rifles, and the 37th Assam Rifles with other central security forces that are more inclined towards promoting the unity of the state. They further said that there are concerns regarding the roles played by certain units of the Assam Rifles, which currently pose a threat to the cause of unity within the state.
