Ibobi is credited to bringing stability in government after long time is he completed a full term since Rishang Keising. While many praise him for bringing political stability and development, his 15 years of rule as Chief Minister is also not free from controversies. There are number of alleged fake encounter cases[3] in Manipur especially those associated with insurgent groups. His policy to create seven additional districts in Manipur was not well accepted by Nagas of Manipur and led to 2016 Manipur unrest which led to one of the longest economic blockade in a state in the history of India.
