Imphal, May 30 2023:
Janata Dal (United) National general secretary, in-charge of North-Eastern States and Member of Bihar Legislative Council Afaque Ahmad Khan said whenever BJP's hold gets weak in a State, violent incidents increase there.
The same is happening in Manipur, Afaque Ahmad Khan said in a statement.
The ruling BJP Govt's communal politics is solely responsible for the current situation, he said while adding that the party is making two communities fight with each other in view of the growing anger amongst the public against the party.
Many people have died in this conflict, thousands have been displaced, children are deprived of education and business has collapsed but the BJP is still not ready to wake up, he charged.
Targeting the BJP leaders, he said that, in States like Bihar, Jharkhand and Rajasthan even when there is a normal criminal incident the BJP people start beating their chest, but even after gruesome violence in Manipur, Modi-Shah duo did not even utter words of sympathy for the people of Manipur.
The Modi-Shah duo also did not take any initiative regarding the students of Bihar who were suffering from hunger and thirst due to Govt's faulty policy.
On the other hand, Chief Minister of Bihar Nitish Kumar showed concern by sending special aircraft to Manipur and bringing the students of Bihar safely back to Bihar, he said.
BJP should tell what was the fault of the people of Manipur, why the sympathy of their leaders is not with the people of Manipur, he asked while adding that they should tell whether people of the BJP ruled States have no right to live.
After destroying the peace of a beautiful State like Manipur by creating rift between communities, today they are trying unsuccessfully to do the same experiment in Bihar, he continued.
Let the BJP know that the days of their frenzied politics are over, he added.
