PM Modi on Manipur Woman Parade Issue – “This a shameful incident for any society..who did this and who is responsible is another issue, but this has put our nation to shame. I appeal to all chief ministers to tighten law and order. Whether it is Rajasthan, Chattisgarh or Manipur…the issue of a woman’s honor is above all politics.”

“The law will decide and take steps against miscreants in Manipur women parade issue,” the PM said.

Chief Minister has ordered the police to investigate the case and the motive. MP Smriti Irani tweeted ” The horrific video of se**al assault of 2 women emanating from Manipur is condemnable and downright inhuman and also spoke to state CM N. Biren Singh. Meanwhile, police have identified the men and will arrest them soon. According to a police report, the survivors approached the police after 15 days of this horror incident.

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi expressed her agony through her tweet that was completely in Hindi. Priyanka tweeted” The pictures of se**al violence against women coming from Manipur are heart-wrenching. The amount of condemnation of this horrific incident of violence against women is less. Women and children have to bear the maximum brunt of violence in society. We must all condemn the violence in one voice while furthering the efforts for peace in Manipur. Why is the Central Government, Prime Minister sitting blindly on the violent incidents in Manipur? Do such pictures and violent incidents not disturb them? “.
