To The Point: Is Rahul Gandhi's Manipur Visit A Sham? Rajdeep Sardesai Decodes | India Today

Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Monday met flood-affected people in Assam's Cachar district before heading to neighbouring Manipur where he visited relief camps in Jiribam and Churachandpur and interacted with the people who were affected by the year-long ethnic violence. This was Rahul Gandhi's first visit to the Northeast after becoming the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha.

@animeshnath1087 Talk about the present situation. Don't try to justify comparing 20 or 30 years before something happened these and that. The same ideas injecting like BJP people. Mr. Modi is always talking about 20 -30 years before it did wrong. Come on, that's the reason people rejected Congress and gave a chance to BJP. Still, that old story again and again, Nehru, Indira Gandhi bla bla... grown-up , please.... New generations don't like too much old stuff, need a vision, not just talks... need deeds.. That's not happening from BJP for the last 10 years.... Just dreams yourself something very important in the world...someonetold. ...

Shameless BJP leaders don't have the guts to demand Modi to visit Manipur and resolve the issues. If PM doesn't want to go to Manipur then people have elected a Shadow PM to go to Manipur in Modi's place. Rahul's visit to Manipur is people's wish.

[@kvishnup]

If you think it is congress propaganda then explain why Modi is not visiting Manipur? What is he so scared of?
