In a stinging critique, Congress lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's remarks on Manipur's status in the Rajya Sabha. Prime Minister Modi asserted that the situation in the state is normalizing, with declining violence and reopened schools.

However, Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh rebuffed these claims, stating that the ground reality remains tense. He underscored that Modi has yet to visit Manipur since violence erupted in May of the previous year.

Prime Minister Modi further noted that over 500 arrests have been made and the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) has been dispatched to handle flood situations in the area. Nonetheless, Congress accused Modi of ignoring Manipur's plight and avoiding dialogue with local leaders.
