Questioning why Prime Minister Narendra Modi has not travelled to Manipur until now, the Congress on October 24 alleged that Mr. Modi “abandoned” the State at a time when his intervention and outreach were needed the most.
Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh, in a post on X, said it is the 175th day since Manipur erupted and social harmony was devastated. But five questions continue to be asked by the people of Manipur and by all those who want the process of reconciliation and trust-building to gather momentum.
“The people of Manipur and the entire northeast are closely watching how the Prime Minister has abandoned the State of Manipur at a time when his intervention and outreach were needed the most. He cannot escape accountability and responsibility by completely ignoring the crisis,” Mr. Ramesh said.
