Congress-led group of parties make light of 48 workers quitting CPI
The Congress-led Manipur Progressive Secular Alliance has made light of the resignation of 48 members of ally CPI.
The CPI, too, brushed it aside as a “local issue”.
Peeved about the alliance, 48 CPI members in the Wangjing-Tentha Assembly constituency resigned from the party. This was announced on February 4 at the residence of former CPI candidate for the constituency and State executive member Haobam Robindro. He accused the Congress of taking advantage of the CPI while condemning the latter’s State council for forming the alliance despite stiff opposition by most of the local council members.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
