North Eastern Council withdraws "Vision Plan 2047" due to Kuki (Chin) migration error.

The North Eastern Council (NEC) withdrew its draft "Vision Plan 2047" due to a factual error regarding the Kuki (Chin) migration from Myanmar's Chin State, which was incorrectly stated as the 'Chin State of Manipur'. The 664-page document aimed to outline the vision for the eight northeastern states until 2047 when India would celebrate 100 years of Independence. The error was discovered by Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh, who informed the Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER) Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia about the mistake, leading to the document's withdrawal.
