AAP to lead nationwide protests today

Tuesday, 25 July 2023 | Staff Reporter | New Delhi

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has announced that it will lead nationwide protests on Tuesday, demanding the immediate intervention of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the deteriorating situation and continuing violence in Manipur.

 AAP national convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has urged the Prime Minister to personally address the issue and take concrete steps to restore peace in Manipur.

Expressing deep concern, AAP Delhi State convenor Gopal Rai stated that Manipur has been ravaged by a devastating wave of violence and inhuman acts for the last three months.

“Shockingly, people are being attacked, and homes are being set ablaze without any respite. The violence against women has reached horrifying levels. Regrettably, instead of taking action, the BJP-led Government in Manipur seems to be instigating further discord,” he said.

Gopal Rai further accused the Central Government of being a passive observer and not taking any meaningful measures to address the situation in Manipur. He pointed out the significant loss of lives, the countless orphans left behind, and the mass exodus of thousands of people from Manipur to other States due to the ongoing violence. “The barbaric acts against women are occurring with impunity, yet the Governments at both the State and Centre have chosen to remain silent. Such apathy and inaction cannot be tolerated,” he said.

“The AAP has resolved to oppose this grave injustice and will hold peaceful protests across the country on Tuesday. The situation in Manipur necessitates urgent intervention from the Central Government, and the Prime Minister's silence on the matter is deeply troubling. The entire nation must unite to save Manipur from its current plight. This issue transcends politics, and the party urges all citizens to join in their peaceful demonstrations. A protest is scheduled to be held at Jantar Mantar in Delhi soon” he said.

Kejriwal, reiterated the urgency of the situation and called upon Modi to address the nation in Parliament. “The Prime Minister cannot remain hidden when Manipur is burning; the people will naturally turn to their leader in times of crisis,” he said. He urged Modi to step forward, resolve the issue, and take necessary actions to restore peace in Manipur.
