BJP settles leadership issue with endorsements in favour of CM Biren Singh from Shah, Nadda
The BJP is going into the Manipur elections with the slogan, “Hanna Hanna BJP, Henna Henna Chaokhatpa”, which roughly translates to “Again and again BJP - More and More Development” banking on the track record of Chief Minister N. Biren Singh’s government.
Elections in the State is scheduled for February 27.
The anti-Biren Singh camp in the party has been batting for an Assam model within the State, where incumbent Chief Minister Sarbanda Sonowal was replaced with Hemant Biswa Sarma after the BJP won the State for the second time. In the last 10 days, however, the party has tried to settle the question, with both Union Home Minister Amit Shah and its president J.P. Nadda endorsing the Chief Minister.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
