Gaurav Gogoi’s addressal

Gaurav Gogoi, who opened today’s no-confidence discussion in the Lok Sabha, claimed that the opposition INDIA party was compelled to file the resolution in order to end PM Modi’s “vow of silence” on Manipur. He claimed that a government that preaches about “one India” had actually produced two Manipurs, one that lived in the valley and one that lived in the hills.

“Why did he (PM Modi) take about 80 days to speak on Manipur and just spoke for 30 seconds? After that, there has been no peace appeal on Manipur from him. Ministers are saying they will speak, but as the Prime Minister, the power of his words cannot be matched by ministers. Through the no-confidence motion, we want to break his vow of silence,” Gogoi said.
