Protest Over Manipur Violence
The government’s major push on the legislative front is probably going to take place against the backdrop of the impasse in parliament over Manipur. According to sources, the government does not anticipate the opposition to relent on its demand that Prime Minister Narendra Modi address the Manipur matter in parliament. The opposition’s demand is met with a hard refusal from the administration, which believes it is being driven by electoral imperatives.
According to sources, the government has already made an effort to talk about and fix the problem. Rajnath Singh, the defence minister, had phone conversations with prominent opposition figures. But because the opposition was so fiercely opposed to giving in, there were a flurry of meetings on the government’s end.
Senior ministers have had meetings with PM Modi. After meeting Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, Mr. Shah and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi decided to take the current course of action, according to sources.

31 legislation have been drafted by the administration for consideration during the monsoon session, which has a busy legislative agenda. One of them is a law intended to take the place of the Ordinance, which provides the Centre the authority to manage bureaucrats stationed in Delhi.
The opposition parties are also adamant about blocking any legislative agenda before the Manipur discussion. And even before that, according to them, PM Modi must address Manipur in parliament.
Media reported today that Manipur is “one of the gravest crises our country has faced in a long time,” according to senior Congress lawmaker Shashi Tharoor.
“There has been a horrendous loss of lives… there were rapes and violence and displacement. And now it is spreading. In Mizoram, there has been a backlash and Meities are fleeing the state,” Mr Tharoor said, declaring that there cannot be a more important subject that needs PM Modi’s attention.
According to sources, the state in the northeast has seen awful bloodshed before. When unrest broke out in the state in 1993 and 1997, however, no prime minister had visited. Parliament did not discuss it, and the Minister of State for the Interior only made a remark once.

According to sources, the government will only address Manipur in its parliamentary response; it won’t address the violence in states where the opposition is in power, which several BJP officials have brought up in recent weeks.
