Kharge in his “X” handle has alleged since May 2023, it is undergoing unimaginable pain, division and simmering violence, which has destroyed the future of its people.

He said,”We are saying it with utmost responsibility that it looks that the BJP deliberately wants Manipur to burn, for it serves its hateful divisive politics”.

“You have failed Manipur — a beautiful border state. Even if you visit Manipur in future, people of the state will never forgive or forget that you left them to fend for themselves, and never set foot in their state to heal their miseries and find a solution”,Kharge said.
