"From Imphal, they will go by a chopper to Churachandpur due to security issues. As only one helicopter is available, the members of the delegation would be divided into two teams, and the chopper will make two trips to ferry them," a security official told news agency PTI.
Meanwhile, on Friday, 28 July, former Indian Army chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane in an event said that "instability in border state is bad for national security."
"I am sure that those who are in the chair and responsible for taking actions due to be taken are doing their best. We should avoid to second guess them. The person on the ground knows best what is to be done. Definitely, instability does not help us in the overall national security construct and the involvement of foreign agencies not only say cannot be ruled out but I will say it is definitely there, specially Chinese aid to various insurgent groups, they've been helping them for so many years. They will continue, I believe," he said about Manipur, as quoted by news agency ANI.
Background: The visit comes during the ongoing monsoon session of the Parliament, where the Opposition has been continuously demanding Prime Minister Narendra Modi's statement, followed by a discussion on the situation in Manipur.
Manipur has been witnessing violence between the Meitei and the Kuki communities since 3 May.
