The Congress on June 16 demanded an “all-party meeting” on the unabated violence in Manipur and the country needs answers from the government on the conflict that is spiralling out of control.
Congress General Secretary (Organisation) K.C. Venugopal, in a tweet, said that for the last 40 days, the northeastern State has been burning and that there is no semblance of the rule of law in the State. “Those in power are themselves spearheading massacres and helping militants with arms and ammunition. The PM has maintained a stone-cold silence, and his government has taken no concrete action so far,” he said.
Those responsible for this disastrous situation must be held accountable, he demanded. He added, “The PM must immediately call for an all-party meeting because the country is demanding answers. Will he finally speak up after a Union Minister’s residence has been attacked?”
