Biren Singh Led BJP to Manipur Mandate, Now He May Be Part of A Triangular Contest for CM’s Chair

The elections are over, the results are out, but one battle is still raging in Manipur. Who will be the chief minister? Before going into the elections, the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party had not officially nominated incumbent chief minister N Biren Singh as its choice.

Sources inside the party were of the opinion that since there was a faction fight, the central leadership did not reveal a CM face.

Biren ran the state successfully as chief minister over the past five years, but he did come up against rivals inside the party.

Thongam Biswajit Singh is one of the challengers. He actually joined the BJP before Biren Singh. Party insiders say he thought in 2017 that he would be the chief minister, being senior.
