During the visit to Manipur, Amit Shah said that he will engage in talks with all stakeholders.
The union home minister also said that it was “for the first time in the past six year in Manipur, since the BJP came to power in the state, that violence of such nature broke out”.
While trying to distance the BJP governments – both at the centre and Manipur – Amit Shah said that the violence broke out because of a court judgement.
“I urge all the people of Manipur to maintain peace,” said Amit Shah.
He added: “Every problem can be resolved via dialogue.”
It may be mentioned here that at least 15 pro-Biren Singh MLAs from Manipur were camping in Guwahati to meet Amit Shah on Thursday.
