New Delhi, 4th May. The Congress said on Thursday that the BJP’s politics of hatred were to blame for the violent clash between two communities in Manipur.
Mallikarjun Kharge, the Congress president, urged the people of Manipur to exercise restraint and allow peace to reign in the state.
“Manipur is burning. BJP has created fissures among communities and destroyed the peace of a beautiful state,” Kharge said on Twitter.
“BJP’s politics of hate, division and its greed for power is responsible for this mess. “We appeal to people from all sides to exercise restraint and give peace a chance,” he said.
According to a defense official, the Army and Assam Rifles have been sent to handle the situation in Manipur, where violence erupted during a tribal movement.
So far, the forces have rescued 4,000 individuals from violent locations and transferred them to shelters, he said, adding that more people are being relocated to safer areas.
