New Delhi [India], July 23 (ANI): Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi on Tuesday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah do not have any understanding of the complexity of the north-eastern region and aspirations of their people.
This comes after the Naga group, National Socialist Council of Nagalim (NSCN), which advocates for the creation of a separate Greater Nagalim released a press statement claiming that the group Arambai Tengol has been inflicting violence on Christians in the state of Manipur.
“The problem with PM Modi is that he identifies Northeast states as small states with multiple groups fighting each other. He and HM Amit Shah don’t understand the complexity of the region or the aspirations of the people,” Gogoi said in a post on ‘X’.
“Their lackadaisical approach creates a deeper entanglement which takes many more years to resolve,” the Congress MP said adding that women, young people and children have to bear the brunt of this instability.
Blaming the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh for allegedly exerting its dominion over “passive” people of the northeast, Gogoi said that the faster we get past Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the better the situation will be for the north-east.
“The RSS / Sangh have no understanding of nation-building and do not understand how long it takes to build trust and cooperation amongst diverse interest groups. Their nationalism is not about unity and integrity but about dominion over a passive citizenry. The sooner we get past PM Modi the better it will be for peace in the Northeast,” the Congress MP said.
Earlier on July 11, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had toured Manipur and called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi to visit Manipur urging him to listen to the problems of the state people and said that Congress and INDIA bloc will raise the “need for peace” in Manipur with full force in Parliament.
Sharing a five-minute video on X, the Congress leader said that Manipur is “divided into two parts.”This is the third time I have come here since violence broke out in Manipur, but unfortunately, there is no improvement in the situation – even today the state is divided into two parts,” Rahul Gandhi posted on X.
