Manipur has gone beyond the brink. We should have no doubts. Third rate politics have divided the communities and have engendered hate between the Meitis and Kukis. The need of the hour is to regain the state and ensure that the writ of the government runs in the state. The rest can follow later. What is strange is the silence of our PM. High time he steps in. A sensitive border state like Manipur can not be allowed to be in such a state. China has already started fishing in troubled waters and will only be too glad to sow disharmony.
