No plan for 'supra state' in Northeast: PM
Manmohan Singh said integrity of Manipur will be protected and the state is an important part of the union.

Imphal: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Saturday said that there was no plan for a 'supra state' for Nagas in the Northeast and appealed to militants to ensure peace in Manipur for speeding up development work.

"Manipur needs peace and tranquillity for all round development. Different communities have been living here for centuries and there should not be any misunderstand among them," Singh told a public meeting in Imphal.

On recent media reports that the Centre was planning a 'supra state' for Nagas in the Northeast, he said "there is no such proposal. Integrity of Manipur will be protected and the state is an important part of the union."

There was applause from the crowd when he said that the protection of the territorial issue in Manipur was a very 'sensitive one'.

Singh said "there is no issue which cannot be solved in a democratic set up like in our country."
