Priyanka Gandhi Vadra Asks Government To Take ‘Concrete Steps’ For Peace In Manipur
Four villagers were on January 1 gunned down by unidentified assailants in the minority-dominated Lilong Chingjao area in Thoubal district.
Taking to platform X, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra wrote, “Four people were killed in Manipur, many people are injured, there is curfew in many districts. The people of Manipur have been facing murder, violence and destruction for eight months. When will this trend stop?”
Further, she claimed that a joint delegation of leaders of all the parties from Manipur had come to Delhi and sought time to meet the Prime Minister but to date, he has not given time.
“Neither he (PM Modi) went to Manipur, nor talked about Manipur, nor replied in Parliament, nor took any action. Is this the leadership that Manipur needs, or is the power of advertisements enough to become great!” the Congress leader said.
