2.바카라 웹사이트Manipur Congress president Keisham Meghachandra said that바카라 웹사이트Rahul Gandhi's visit to Moirang was cancelled as the administration did not permit him to come to Moirang - neither by road nor by air.

3. Congress criticised the government, alleging that it was interfering with the efforts of Rahul Gandhi.바카라 웹사이트Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said,"PM Modi has not bothered to break his silence on Manipur. He has left the state to fend for itself."
"Now, his double engine disastrous governments are using autocratic methods to stall a compassionate outreach by Rahul Gandhi. This is totally unacceptable and shatters all constitutional and democratic norms. Manipur needs peace, not confrontation," he added.
Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said it is "most unfortunate" that the Modi government is preventing Gandhi from visiting relief camps.바카라 웹사이트"His 2-day visit to Manipur is in the spirit of the Bharat Jodo Yatra. The prime minister may choose to remain silent or be inactive but why stop Rahul Gandhi's efforts to listen to all sections of the Manipuri society and provide a healing touch," Ramesh asked.
4. BJP leader Sambit Patra said that the situation in Manipur is due to the "legacy" issue, in which Congress has played an "important role". "All Manipur Students' Union during a press conference yesterday demanded to boycott Rahul Gandhi's visit and enumerated those legacy issues. Many civil society organisations had also given a call that Rahul Gandhi should not come to Manipur and incite sparks. Rahul Gandhi's behaviour is highly irresponsible," he said.
