- On May 28, 2025, BJP MLA Thokchom Radheshyam Singh, accompanied by nine other MLAs, met with Governor Ajay Kumar Bhalla in Imphal to express that they have the support of 44 legislators to establish a new administration in Manipur.
- This development follows the imposition of President's Rule since February 13, after Chief Minister N Biren Singh resigned amid ethnic clashes that began in May 2023.
- The assembly currently has 59 MLAs with one seat vacant, and the 44 MLAs backing government formation exclude 10 Kuki MLAs and five from Congress.
- Thokchom Radheshyam Singh indicated that if the newly established government is unable to function effectively, President's Rule could be reinstated with full authority, emphasizing that the decision rests with the BJP's central leadership.
- This move aims to restore a popular government to address prolonged conflict and public hardship, while the Centre faces pressure to end the ongoing President's Rule by August 12, 2025.
