Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting and Youth Affairs, Anurag Thakur on July 29 took a strong stance against the ongoing visit of a delegation of 20 INDIA (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance) MPs to violence-hit Manipur.
Anurag Thakur Takes Strong Stance Against Opposition Alliance MPs’ Manipur Visit
The delegation seeks to address the rising communal tensions and violence that have gripped the Northeastern state.
“It is just a show-off by the INDIA alliance MPs who have gone to Manipur. The opposition and its allies never spoke when Manipur used to burn during their rule in the state,” Anurag Thakur said.
“When they come back from Manipur, I would request Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury to bring them to West Bengal. I want to ask Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, does he agree with the atrocities against women in the state? In Rajasthan where there are killings & crimes against women, the opposition did not go there. Will the INDIA alliance also go to Rajasthan?” the Union Minister added.
