BJP has divided Manipur and communities: Congress

The Hindu  

The debate on the Opposition- Mr. Gogoi said the government that “talks of one India has today created two Manipurs and deeply divided communities are now talking the language of revenge against each other”. BJP member Nishikant Dubey said the parties belonging to the Indian National Developmental, Inclusive Alliance had brought a no-confidence motion against a “poor person’s son” who had worked for the welfare of the people. Union Minister Kiren Rijiju said the Congress and the other Opposition parties brought the no-trust motion at a “wrong time and in a wrong manner” as Mr. Modi had emerged as the world leader and the country was moving towards becoming a developed nation by 2047. “Through the no-confidence motion we want to break his vow of silence,” Mr. Gogoi said, adding that the Prime Minister should lead an all-party delegation to Manipur and talk to civil society organisations to restore peace.
