Prime Minister Modi’s anathema for Manipur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLEpN2WLwr0 anto akkara
May 24, 2024
The nation is baffled by the silence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi who has not set foot in anarchic Manipur in a year. Modi who boasts about ‘great Indian democracy’ abroad remains deaf and dumb to the cries for restoration of normalcy and peace in Manipur. Modi who has made several trips to neighbouring Assam even went for an elephant safari on March 8 at Kazaringa National Park, over 200 kms from Manipur border without bothering to enter the simmering state. Is this the blunt message? “I don’t care” about Manipur.
The sensitive border state of Manipur completed one year of violence on Friday, May 3. During this period, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has not paid even a single visit to the crisis-ridden state but has had the time to make 162 official and non-official visits to various other states in the country. https://thewire.in/politics/narendra-modi-manipur-miss-trips-states-abroad

‘Modiji, Silence Is Not Always Golden’: Protesters Say if Kukis Lose, Indian Democracy Will Lose Too
'Nothing has changed over the last six months. The Meiti extremists have started attacking the Kuki people in Moreh again...[But] at least back then, the Kukis could run to the army camps. Now, they are forced to stay in the forest and have no place to reside,' said an activist.
On asking what has changed over the last six months in Manipur, Mary Grace, one of the founders of the Kuki-Zo Women’s Group, told The Wire, “Nothing has changed. The Meiti extremists have stopped the violence for a while to reorganise and train themselves, and now they have started attacking the Kuki people in Moreh again, the same way they did in Imphal valley six months ago.”
