The opposition Congress Saturday alleged that the legislators of the ruling BJP led coalition in Manipur are now engaged in a internal power struggle rather than focusing on the development of the state.

On Friday Chief Minister N Biren Singh had divested Deputy Chief Minister Joykumar Singh of charge of the Finance department and Th Biswajit Singh of the Power and Public Works department. The CM himself took charge of the Finance, Power and Public Works department.

Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee president Gaikhangam said "though (Cabinet reshuffle) it is an internal matter for the ruling party but the opposition cannot remain mute as it will push the state into crisis."
