CM urges patience amid national outcry on Manipur crisis
Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh has acknowledged the ongoing crisis in the state as "chronic and fragile," emphasizing that finding a permanent solution requires time.
Part of a house and a boundary wall were partially damaged in a blast here on Sunday night but no one was injured, police said on Monday.
Police said that the windscreen of a car was also smashed due to the blast at Naga Mapal. No organisation has claimed the attack.

Also, no headway has been made in the killing of Lal Babu from Bihar, a fermented fish trader, who was abducted from his house and brought to the Manipur University — passing through high security areas — where he was shot dead.
Meanwhile, the state government has been organising “Imphal evening” not very far from Naga Mapal.
Chief minister N. Biren Singh said: “Imphal evening is organised on Saturdays and Sundays till 10 p.m. in view of the improved law and order situation.”
“People will get a chance to stay out at the weekends. We hope that other trading centres will start opening at night also.”
