Manipur issue to be raised in Parliament: Rahul Gandhi

New Delhi, July 11

The Congress and the INDIA bloc will raise the issue of ethnic violence in Manipur and the need to put an end to it with full force in Parliament to put pressure on the government to take effective steps, Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi said on Thursday.

Gandhi, who visited Manipur earlier this week, reiterated that PM Narendra Modi should personally visit Manipur and listen to the problems of the people.

He made the remarks in a post in Hindi on X as he shared a video of his interactions with the people of Manipur during his day-long visit to the violence-hit state on Monday.

“The Congress and INDIA will raise the need for peace in Manipur with full force in Parliament to put pressure on the government to end this tragedy,” he said.
