Congress Leader Mallikarjun Kharge Says BJP's Tactics Have Not Brought Peace to Manipur

Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge, speaking to the media, asserted that the Bharatiya Janata Party's political maneuvers have not succeeded in bringing peace to the troubled state of Manipur. He highlighted the ongoing unrest and the lack of tangible progress despite the central government's interventions.
Kharge warned that continued polarization could further destabilise the region, urging the BJP to adopt a more inclusive approach that addresses the grievances of all communities. He emphasized that peace can only be achieved through dialogue and genuine reconciliation, not through partisan tactics.
The statement comes amid heightened political attention on Manipur, where ethnic tensions and armed clashes have persisted for months. Opposition parties have seized the moment to question the ruling party's handling of the crisis, while the BJP maintains that its policies are aimed at restoring law and order.
Kharge's remarks are likely to shape the discourse ahead of upcoming state and national elections, as parties vie for voter confidence in a region still grappling with insecurity.
