No political party was behind the violence that wrecked mayhem in Manipur. This was stated by Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh while addressing an election rally in Mizoram on November 1.
‘Manipur Violence Was A Result Of Some Situation And Insecurity’: Rajnath Singh
“The unfortunate violence that happened in Manipur was very painful for all of us. But I would honestly like to tell you that no political party led this violence,” said Rajnath Singh at Siaha in Mizoram.
“I would not like to accuse any political party. Some situation occurred, which led to this violence in Manipur between two communities. The violence was a result of some situation and insecurity,” he added.
Rajnath Singh blamed the Congress party for allegedly trying to garner political mileage out of the violence in Manipur.
“When violence in Manipur was at its peak, Congress tried to take advantage of the situation and played politics with it,” he said.
Rajnath Singh further urged the Meitei and Kuki communities in Manipur to sort out the differences by sitting for talks.
