India’s opposition leader Rahul Gandhi condemns the Modi government over violence in Manipur

Associated Press  

NEW DELHI — India’s top opposition leader unleashed a strong condemnation Wednesday of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government for its failure to control bloodshed in a remote northeastern state that he said has been divided. Gandhi, who was reinstated as a lawmaker three days after the country’s top court halted his criminal defamation conviction for mocking the prime minister’s surname, was participating in a debate on a no-confidence motion moved by the opposition against the Modi government in the lower house of India’s Parliament. Gandhi accused the Modi government of killing the spirit of India in Manipur state by silencing people’s voices. Home Minister Amit Shah said Wednesday the government was deeply concerned about the violence in Manipur state, which he described as a ``dance of fury.” He said so far 152 people have lost their lives, 68 of them in the first three days of violence that started in May.
