Last year, the Opposition tabled a no-confidence motion against the BJP-led government at the Centre, pressing for a statement from PM Modi on the Manipur situation.
Responding to these criticisms, PM Modi assured Parliament of the collaborative efforts underway between the Centre and the state government to restore peace in Manipur.
He affirmed that the entire country stands in solidarity with Manipur and reaffirmed the joint commitment of the Centre and state governments to reinstating peace in the region.
