JD(U) Withdraws Support from BJP in Manipur: Opposition Shift Amid Political Changes

Date:

The Janata Dal (United) (JD(U)) has officially withdrawn its support from the BJP-led government in Manipur, following a series of defections. The party’s lone MLA, Md Abdul Nasir, has decided to sit in the opposition benches, marking a significant shift in the political landscape. This move comes after five JD(U) MLAs defected to the BJP after the Assembly elections, leaving Nasir as the sole representative of the party in the 60-member Manipur Assembly.

Despite JD(U)’s withdrawal, the BJP maintains its dominant position with 37 seats, bolstered by the support of five members of the Naga People’s Front and three independent MLAs, allowing Chief Minister N. Biren Singh’s government to remain stable. The JD(U) decision, however, signals a change in the state’s political dynamics, with implications for future alliances.

JD(U)’s move is also part of its broader national strategy within the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA). However, the JD(U) leadership at the national level distanced itself from the actions taken by the state leadership, emphasizing that they had no authority to make such a decision. The withdrawal of JD(U) reflects the fluid nature of political alliances in India, where shifts in party positions and affiliations are common in state-level politics.
