Prime Minister Narendra Modi went to France on a two-day visit on the National Day of France on invitation from the French President.

Jairam Ramesh slams Centre while taking India’s moon Mission in loop

Targeting the Centre, Ramesh said, “In January 1977 Richard Nelson a noted economist at Yale University published a very influential essay called The Moon and the Ghetto. It became required reading for people like me in graduate school. Nelson poses the question: why is it that a technologically dynamic America is able to land man on the moon but is unable to meaningfully address its problems at home especially in the inner cities.”

“It is a deeply thought-provoking analysis not without its relevance to us too,” the Congress leader said.

“We can go to the moon but are unable or unwilling to deal with the basic issues our people face at home. An Indian version of the Nelson essay may read, The Moon and Manipur,” Ramesh added.

India referred to a resolution passed by the European Parliament over the situation in Manipur as reflecting a “colonial mindset” on Thursday. Arindam Bagchi, a spokesman for the External Affairs Ministry, called the involvement “unacceptable” in India’s domestic affairs. For almost two months, Manipur has been the scene of deadly conflicts, particularly between the Kuki and Meitei populations. The government has been charged by opposition parties for failing to control the violence.
