Opposition MPs, govt clash over Manipur at House panel meet

Hindustan Times  

Members of the Opposition protested the Union home ministry’s decision to deliver a detailed presentation on the security situation in the Northeast without mentioning the ongoing violence in Manipur, during a meeting of the parliamentary standing committee on home affairs on Tuesday, according to two officials familiar with the matter. During the meeting, the Opposition also tried to raise the issue of federalism, while a Bharatiya Janata Party MP raised the issue of post-poll violence in West Bengal to counter the aggressive stance of the Trinamool Congress, the people cited above said. Union home secretary Govind Mohan on Tuesday delivered a two-hour presentation focussing on the ministry’s achievements and thrust areas, particularly those related to the Northeast, during a meeting of the panel headed by BJP’s Radha Mohan Das Agrawal. One Opposition MP alleged that the home secretary “wrapped up the complex issue” of Centre-state relations in just one of the 69 pages in the presentation and demanded a separate, detailed discussion on the issue.
