The opposition Congress in Manipur has accused the ruling BJP government of failing to expand the council of ministers.
In a recent statement, the Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee voiced strong criticism against the state government led by the Bharatiya Janata Party. The party alleged that the BJP administration has been unable to broaden the council of ministers, a move they say is essential for effective governance.
Congress leaders argued that expanding the council would allow for better representation of diverse communities and improve decision‑making processes. They pointed out that the current cabinet size is insufficient to address the state's pressing developmental needs.
The BJP, for its part, has not yet responded to the criticism. The issue has sparked debate among political analysts who are watching how the state government will address the call for a larger cabinet in the coming months.
