Imphal (Manipur), Dec 23 (ANI): Manipur based journalist Kishor Chandra Wangkhem was arrested on Saturday for allegedly criticizing Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh. Kishore Chandra Wangkhem was working for a television channel in the northeastern state of Manipur when he uploaded several video clips last month calling the state’s chief minister, N Biren Singh, a “puppet” of the central government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In the posts, Wangkham criticized the state government for commemorating a north Indian freedom fighter, the Rani of Jhansi, a symbol of resistance against British colonial rule in the mid-1800s, who he said had nothing to do with Manipur’s own struggle against the British.
