‘Some Opposition parties not serious about Manipur situation’: Rajnath Singh

Live Mint  

Defence minister Rajnath Singh on Friday assured all members in the Lok Sabha that the Centre was ready and willing to discuss all issues with regard to law and order in the Northeast state. Parliament Monsoon Session Day 2 LIVE Updates “Manipur incident is most definitely a very serious matter and sensing the gravity of the situation, the PM, himself, has said that what happened in the state has put the entire nation to shame,” he said. Accusing the Opposition members of not being as serious on the Manipur situation as they should be, the Defence Minister said, "A few political parties are tying to create a needless ruckus in Parliament to ensure that a discussion over Manipur can't take place.” Manipur Violence LIVE Updates: The opening day of the ongoing Monsoon Session, on Thursday, was disrupted over the demand for a discussion on Manipur in both Houses of the Parliament. Meanwhile, even as Defence Minister and Deputy Leader of the House Rajnath Singh asserted that the government was ready for a discussion on the Manipur issue, Lok Sabha proceedings were adjourned for the day amid relentless protests by opposition members. On Thursday, while speaking to media persons before the Parliament went into session, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said his heart was filled with sorrow and anger over the incident in Manipur.
