Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the central government is continuously working with the state government to normalise the situation in Manipur. He appealed to everyone to rise above politics and cooperate in normalising the situation there. PM Modi also warned those who are ‘adding fuel to the fire’ to stop such activities.
Responding to the discussion on the motion of thanks on the President’s address in the Rajya Sabha, the Prime Minister said, “The government is constantly trying to normalize the situation in Manipur. More than 11,000 FIRs have been registered in the incidents that have happened there. Manipur is a small state, yet 11,000 FIRs. More than 500 people have been arrested there.” He said, “We also have to accept that the incidents of violence in Manipur are constantly decreasing. This means that it is becoming possible to hope for peace and trust in peace.”
‘Like other parts of the country, schools and colleges are opening in Manipur too’
PM Modi said that today in most parts of Manipur, schools, colleges, offices and other institutions are opening like normal days. He said that just like exams were held in other parts of the country, exams were held in Manipur too and children have continued their development journey. PM said, “The central and state government are constantly trying to open a harmonious path for peace by talking to everyone. Creating a fabric by connecting small units is a huge task and it is happening in a peaceful manner.”
‘We want everyone’s cooperation too’
The Prime Minister said, “In 1993, a similar series of events took place in Manipur and it was so intense and widespread that it continued for five years. Understanding all this history, we have to try to correct the situation very wisely. Whoever wants to cooperate in this, we also want the cooperation of everyone. We are making every effort to maintain normalcy and bring peace.”
He appealed to all political parties and said, “We all should rise above politics and cooperate in normalizing the situation there. This is the duty of all of us.” He said, “I warn those elements who are trying to add fuel to the fire in Manipur to stop such activities. A time will come when Manipur itself will reject them.”
