Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh praised the people of Manipur for electing Congress MPs in both Inner and Outer Manipur constituencies.
Congress Victories In Manipur Is A Tight Slap On Narendra Modi’s Face: Jairam Ramesh
Jairam Ramesh attributed this electoral success to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s visit to Manipur on June 29-30, 2023, and the launch of the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra from Thoubal on January 14, 2024.
He did not hold back in his criticism of Narendra Modi, accusing him of neglecting the crisis in Manipur. “It is also a tight slap on the face of Narendra Modi, who simply refused to reach out to the people of Manipur and did not visit the state even for a few hours,” Jairam Ramesh asserted.
In microblogging platform X, he said, “The long-suffering people of Manipur, whose resilience and strength has been under major strain since the state began burning on the night of May 3rd 2023, have sent a very powerful signal by electing Congress MPs in both Inner and Outer Manipur.”
