Mr. Bimol questions Mr. Modi on nationalism in a very emotional yet logical manner.

[@jayeshrao739]

I’m ashamed that the previous MPs didn’t have guts to open their mouths in support of Manipur

[@sevensisters4026]

​@@nissarpa1259Please have some common sense. It's about the previous representatives of the state Manipur. For your kind information, Rahul Gandhi has not only raised his voice including multiple visits. Mohua too has raised her voice in more than one occasion.

Nishikant Dubey should be ashamed to counter him with irrelevant points. Just shows how clueless they are about Manipur and yet keep boasting about inclusiveness over petty things

What can you expect from a character like him & his party? Perfect example of ten years of whataboutery.

[@sylviapinto3694]

Very well voiced your concern for Manipur. The rest of the Indians who do not support violence and hatred, caste and religion division stand by you.

[@anurag-2905]

Manipur has spoken after a year.. for 1 year no MP from Manipur was allowed to speak on the Civil War.

[@ananmaish1665]

Hats off Ojha Bimol..you nailed it!!

[@JohnMarak-xx6xw]

What a powerfull speech sir much appreciated....honestly govt has been ignoring NorthEast since we became the part of these particular country....I love my NorthEast we are family as one❤

[@Dogmatix1950]

It's a matter of crying shame the way Indian governments have treated the North Eastern states. The insensitivity towards Manipur and its people exemplified by Modi clearly tells how little the state counts in the electoral arithmetic of BJP.

[@olikjomang4132]

Prof akoijam speaks volume

[@jayeshrao739]

Nishikanth Dubey is irrational, what issue the MP is raising and Mr Dubey is at a different level

[@romeshsingh1539]

He is confused how the counter with relevant points. So he come up with irrelevant points.That means he is a slave of Modi.

[@romeshsingh1539]

How on earth the PM of a country silence or ignore when the state is burning for 12 months.He don't want to visit the state to solve the problem as the head of the country and don't even utter any word of healing touch.

[@Cattydonkey]

Well spoken…

[@Rickshal276]

The Prime Minister's indifference to Manipur's suffering is troubling. A simple gesture of concern could have provided some solace, but his silence suggests a lack of genuine commitment to the people.

[@user-ko6mw5sb8z]

Nishikant Dubey further proving Mr. Bimol's point literally before everybody.

Why Poppy Thapar has never called Bimol again for the interview 😂?

[@coolvyaktianandvyakti6755]

Yeah, this is absolutely STUPID & IRRESPONSIBLE. Manipur is burning for over an year and you only find time at odd hours to talk about it?

[@coolvyaktianandvyakti6755]

Administration has been dismal all over the country and especially in the NE region since 1947. No wonder, hardly any development happened there and people feel neglected and left out. Very sad that even after 75+ yrs of independence, people of that region have to explain themselves and keep proving that indeed, "they are indian". In Manipur BJP politicians have divided the community in order to keep control and very soon, they will chase people from their land, and give it to the likes of Adani & Ambani for "development" i.e. EXPLOITATION of natural resources. This is the proven mechanism of "divide and rule" which Indian politicians got from British and they are following the same policy. Perhaps more people to people contacts and network can create a parallel "development" environment, which can help Manipuris to go towards a more sensible model of development --- people own enough resources collectively, which if managed well, can really make a huge impact -- the heart needs to be in the right place.

[@coolvyaktianandvyakti6755]

Dubey and Modi share the same characteristic --- both have FAKED THEIR EDUCATIONAL DEGREES, which they never really got. They are both frauds, and surely there are others that grace the parliament these days. Dubey was also the guy, who made a person drink the water that was used to clean his feet --- ONLY A SANSKARI PARTY LIKE BJP can have such people.

[@coolvyaktianandvyakti6755]

Modi has a reputation of sitting on a pile of corpses to have his lunch. He has done so in Gujarat in 2002 and now its Manipur where the land is in one corner of India and so its easy for Modi to ignore it completely. Despite manipulation via EVMs facilitated by ECI, BJP just clawed & stumbled its way in 2024 --- otherwise the people of India would have thrown BJP out of power and Modi out of seat in 2024. Now he will be forced to speak on issues which he has SHAMELESSLY IGNORED, as if he is still representing the state of Gujarat and his few Gujju fraudsters.
