#Manipur Violence : 10 Parties Allege Prime Minister Narendra Modi Ignoring Feelings Of People
As Manipur continues to live on the edge leaders of 10 opposition parties accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of apparently ignoring the feelings of the people of Manipur by not according an audience to them and wondered if the BJP governments at the Centre and in the northeastern state had any hidden agenda in not showing the resolve to restore peace in the violence-hit state.
As per PTI report, Former Manipur chief minister Okram Ibobi Singh, who held the post for 15 years, told a press conference that the leaders from the 10 parties camping in Delhi are not begging for anything, but seeking restoration of peace for which they have sought an audience with the prime minister.
Addressing a joint press conference at the All India Congress Committee (AICC) headquarters here, the leaders, led by Congress’s Ajoy Kumar, Singh and those from the JD(U), CPI(M) and other parties, said they were disappointed as Modi “ignored” them and not even spared even 10 minutes for them before leaving for the United States.
