Former Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh has lashed out at airlines for imposing what he called “daylight robbery” through exorbitant airfares on flights to and from Imphal, at a time when the state remains cut off by road due to ongoing unrest and highway blockades.

In a post on his X handle, Singh said that for more than two and a half years, the people of Manipur have had to depend solely on air travel to reach Imphal, yet airlines continue to exploit the situation.

He pointed out that a 45-minute flight to Guwahati now costs more than a three-hour flight to Delhi, calling the pricing “unfair and unacceptable.”
