'Feel deeply offended': Congress Manipur MP on PM Modi's LS speech

NEW DELHI: Congress MP from Manipur, A Bimol Akoijam stated that he was “deeply offended” by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s lack of address on the Manipur issue and said that he does not wish to listen to his speech on the Constitution in the Lok Sabha.
“Initially, I was hurt by the Prime Minister’s silence… Now I feel deeply offended. I didn’t want to hurt myself anymore by listening to his speech… If he makes sense and someone tells me, I will listen to him,” said A Bimol Akoijam.
Speaking to news agency ANI on Saturday, Akoijam said, “I don’t want to listen to him. We had a discussion, and there were very interesting points that I wanted to speak on, but I did not get the opportunity.”
He also mentioned that he would be writing an article on the matter, as he has witnessed the functioning of the Constitution and Parliament in the country for nearly three decades.
While it is heartening to discuss the 75th year of our Constitution, the reality is that there is currently a complete breakdown of constitutional machinery, he said.
The Congress MP further mentioned that he found it “heart-warming” that many opposition MPs spoke in favour of Manipur.
Meanwhile, the Manipur government lifted the temporary suspension of mobile internet services in nine districts of the state on Monday, as stated in an official order issued by the State Home Department.
On December 8, Manipur Police carried out search operations and enhanced area domination in the fringe and vulnerable areas of both the hill and valley districts. Additionally, the movement of 373 vehicles transporting essential items along NH-2 was facilitated.
Manipur Police stated that strict security measures have been implemented at all vulnerable locations, and convoys are being provided for sensitive stretches to ensure the safe and unhindered movement of vehicles.
“A total of 107 Nakas/Checkpoints have been set up in different districts of Manipur, both in the hills and the valley, and no one has been detained by the police in connection with violations in various districts.”
Earlier on Monday, the Supreme Court directed the state government to submit a sealed cover report outlining properties and buildings that were burnt, partially burnt, looted, trespassed, or encroached upon, along with the names and addresses of the owners and current occupants.
A bench consisting of Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Sanjay Kumar instructed that the state government’s report should also include details of the actions taken to ensure that those who have trespassed are prosecuted lawfully.
