New Delhi, July 11 (UNI) Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Thursday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi should personally visit Manipur and listen to the problems of people of the state.
The former Congress President said the state has been divided into two parts and the Congress and INDI Alliance MPs will raise the Manipur issue in the Parliament with full force until peace returns to the state.
Taking to micro blogging site X, Gandhi said, “This is the third time I have come here since violence broke out in Manipur, but unfortunately there is no improvement in the situation - even today the state is divided into two parts.
“Houses are burning, innocent lives are in danger and thousands of families are forced to live in relief camps,” the Rae Bareli MP said.
