The northeastern state of Manipur has been witnessing escalating violence since May, and there seems to be no end to it. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is yet to visit the crisis-hit state. The opposition has been criticizing the Prime Minister for the aforesaid absence over the past few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Congress on Tuesday alleged that the Prime Minister abandoned the state at a time when his intervention and outreach were needed the most. Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh noted that it is the 175th day since Manipur erupted and social harmony in the state was devastated. However, five questions continue to be asked by the people of Manipur and by all those who want the process of reconciliation and trust-building in the state to gather momentum, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The senior Congress leader wrote on social media platform X, formerly Twitter, that the people of Manipur and the entire Northeast are closely watching how the Prime Minister has abandoned Manipur at a time when his intervention and outreach were needed the most. The Congress leader asserted that PM Modi cannot escape accountability and responsibility by completely ignoring the crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
