NEW DELHI: Amid renewed violence in Manipur , Congress Monday said PM Narendra Modi thinks it's more important to intervene in the Ukraine conflict than to rein in violence in the north-eastern state, as it demanded that CM Biren Singh be sacked and serious steps be taken to restore normalcy. It also said SC-mandated inquiry panel must expedite its probe. While Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said PM "Modi's indifference to Manipur is unforgivable", Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge said former state governor Anusuiya Uikey has said the strife-torn state is upset because it wanted Modi, who has stayed away since the violence broke out, to pay a visit.
AICC general secretary K C Venugopal said the use of rocket launchers in Manipur is startling and shows complete lack of control of the govt. " PM Modi pretends as if Manipur is not a part of India. He thinks it is more suitable for him to intervene in the Russia-Ukraine conflict while being a complete failure in stopping the mindless violence in Manipur.
