BJP chief accuses Congress of ‘sensationalising situation’ in Manipur
J P Nadda was reacting to Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge's letter to President Droupadi Murmu drawing her attention to the violence in the northeastern state.
Four suspected cadres of the outlawed militant outfit, United National Liberation Front (UNLF), were arrested in Thoubal district of ethnic violence-hit Manipur, the Army said.
A defence spokesman on Tuesday said that a 51 mm mortar and an anti-personnel bomb was recovered from the UNLF cadres at Lilong.
“Acting on intelligence inputs, a mobile vehicle checkpost was established near the Lilong police station on Monday night. Four suspected UNLF cadres in two separate vehicles were apprehended with one 51 mm mortar and an anti-personnel bomb. They were later handed over to the police,” the Army Public Relations Officer said.
