INDIA Alliance’s 20 MPs Will Visit Manipur On July 29 Aiming To Gather First-Hand Information Regarding State Ethnic Violence

In order to investigate the situation in the northeastern state, which has been gripped by ethnic violence since May 3, a delegation of 20 MPs from the opposition alliance INDIA will travel to Manipur on July 29 and 30.

The delegation will travel to the state’s valley and hill regions and interact with various populations there. Additionally, they will go to several relief camps.
The delegation includes Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury and Gaurav Gogoi of the Congress, Lalan Singh of the JD(U), Kanimozhi Karunanidhi of the DMK, Sushil Gupta of the AAP, Sushmita Dev of the TMC, Mahua Maji of the JMM, and Mohammed Faizal of the NCP.

Before the visit, Gaurav Gogoi, the deputy leader of the Congress in the Lok Sabha, demanded that a retired Supreme Court judge conducts an investigation into the unrest in Manipur.

“The BJP wants to give the picture that everything is fine in Manipur but it is not so. INDIA MPs will go to Manipur and find out the truth and will put forward that truth before Parliament,” he told reporters outside Parliament.

According to Dev of the Trinamool Congress, the opposition delegation wishes to convey the idea that “we are with the people of Manipur.”

“We are concerned, we want peace to return, the government has failed, so we want to go there and see what solution can be found,” she said.

Premchandran, the leader of the Revolutionary Socialist Party (RSP), who is also in the delegation, stated that the purpose of the visit is to obtain first source information on events in the state.

“The violence is still going on so we would like to have first-hand information and suggest some solutions and recommendations to the government and Parliament before the discussion comes there,” he said.

The opposition bloc had originally proposed sending a delegation of chief ministers to the state, but the plan was shelved because of practical difficulties.

A delegation of the bloc’s leaders had been requesting permission to visit the state, but up until this point, because of the unrest in Manipur, they had been turned down.

The opposition has been pressing the prime minister to address the situation in Manipur, where ethnic violence has taken lives of nearly 200 people since May 3.
