NEW DELHI: Samajwadi Party Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal has retorted to vice-president Jagdeep Dhankhar’s recent observation that disturbance has been weaponised in the temples of democracy and questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not making a statement on Manipur.
In a tweet, Sibal, a senior advocate and a former Union minister, quoted Dhankhar and said, “Vice-President: ‘...disturbance and disruption are being weaponised… to taint temples of democracy’. A temple where the Prime Minister refuses to make a statement on Manipur, refuses to answer questions? That is when the temple of democracy is ‘disturbed and disrupted’!”
