The Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi has once again requested Prime Minister Narendra Modi today (August 15) to visit the violence-hit areas of Manipur and impress upon both the central and state governments to work towards a peaceful resolution of the conflict there at the



earliest.

"They spoke of the pain of being separated from loved ones and the physical and mental toll the conflict has taken on their communities," Gandhi said in a post on X.

Out of concern for their safety, they requested that their faces not be shown, fearing retribution, the Congress leader said as he shared a picture of the Manipuri people holding his hand.

"This is the harsh reality our brothers and sisters in Manipur endure- a state of constant fear," he said.

"As we celebrate Independence Day, let us reflect on the plight of Manipur, where true freedom remains elusive. I urge the Prime Minister once again to visit Manipur and impress upon both central and state governments to work towards a peaceful resolution at the earliest," the former Congress president said.
