Congress Criticizes PM Modi's Foreign Visits Amid Manipur Crisis

As Prime Minister Narendra Modi begins his visits to Brunei and Singapore, the Congress party criticizes him for not making a humanitarian visit to conflict-ridden Manipur. Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh questions Modi's priorities, highlighting ongoing violence and poor conditions in Manipur's relief camps.

As Prime Minister Narendra Modi embarked on a visit to Brunei and Singapore, the Congress criticized him on Tuesday, asking when the 'frequent flyer' would make a humanitarian visit to the troubled state of Manipur.

Prime Minister Modi is visiting Brunei on September 3-4 at the invitation of Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah to bolster bilateral cooperation. He will then proceed to Singapore on September 4-5, following an invitation from Singaporean counterpart Lawrence Wong.

Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said, 'The non-biological PM is making a historic visit to Brunei, after which he heads to Singapore. When will our frequent flyer make a humanitarian visit to Manipur?' The situation in Manipur remains tense, despite the contrary claims by Chief Minister N Biren Singh.
