Manipur Deputy CM warns Naga MLAs may withdraw support for peace

Manipur's Deputy Chief Minister Losii Dikho has indicated that Naga MLAs may consider withdrawing their support from the state government in pursuit of peace. Dikho questioned how the community could survive amid the strife, suggesting the political withdrawal could be a move towards resolving the conflict.
