The Sadar Hills unit of Congress in Manipur has strongly criticised the BJP-led state government following a bomb attack on a Congress leader, raising serious questions about law and order and the Chief Minister's sudden visit to Leimakhong.
The Sadar Hills unit of the Congress party in Manipur has launched a sharp attack on the BJP-led state government after a bomb was hurled at a Congress leader. The incident has triggered fresh political tension in the state, with the opposition demanding accountability from the ruling dispensation.
Congress leaders from the Sadar Hills region expressed serious concern over the deteriorating law and order situation, stating that the attack on their colleague reflected a broader failure of the state administration to ensure the safety of political workers. They accused the BJP government of failing to act decisively against those responsible.
The Congress unit also raised questions about Chief Minister N. Biren Singh's sudden visit to Leimakhong, suggesting that the timing of the visit warranted scrutiny. Party functionaries argued that the state leadership needed to provide clear explanations rather than making unannounced moves while security concerns remained unresolved.
The condemnation underscores the growing friction between the Congress and the ruling BJP in Manipur, where security and political stability have remained contentious issues. The Congress has reiterated its demand for a thorough investigation into the bomb attack and adequate protection for political leaders across the state.
