Congress Questions BJP's Handling of Ongoing Violence and Displacement in Manipur
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge criticized the BJP-led central government for failing to restore peace in Manipur amid ongoing ethnic violence since May 2023, which has caused over 300 deaths and displaced thousands. Kharge questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah on their accountability, the effectiveness of the Peace Committee, and implementation of Supreme Court recommendations. The violence continues despite political changes, with concerns over law and order and relief conditions. Some editorials call for prioritizing Manipur's security and community reconciliation.
