Kharge attacks Modi for ‘abject failure’ in ending Manipur violence

Hindustan Times  

Opposition Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for “abject failure” in ending ethnic violence in Manipur, calling it unforgivable. He said Modi has not spent a single second in Manipur over the past 16 months even as violence continues unabated in the state and people suffer the consequences of the “complicity” of the prime minister and Union home minister Amit Shah. Kharge attacked Manipur chief minister N Biren Singh saying he has set a record in “shamelessly brazening out his rank incompetence” and reportedly demanded the transfer of the Unified Command to the state government to oversee security operations. “The Supreme Court mandated and monitored Manipur Commission of Inquiry into ethnic violence must expedite its investigation.” Kharge said the Modi government must not misuse federal agencies investigating the violence.
