NEW DELHI: While Prime Minister Narendra Modi will embark on a four-state tour for two days beginning Friday, Congress general secretary in-charge of communications department Jairam Ramesh has demanded some comments on violence-hit Manipur.
In a tweet on Thursday, Ramesh said, “Meanwhile, the prime minister is visiting Chhattisgarh and UP tomorrow. Day after he will be in Telangana and Rajasthan. More photo-ops. More distorted facts. More insults aimed at the opposition. More self-glorification. But not a word on Manipur even after 66 days. Not an iota of expression of pain, grief and anguish. No appeal for peace, harmony and reconciliation. His behaviour on Manipur is shockingly bizarre.”
