"This upcoming Parliamentary election is between two different ideologies - one which impose their idea and the other in respecting ideology of all people across the state", Rahul said.

He added that the BJP in collaboration with the RSS has been trying to impose their ideology to all the countrymen despite the fact that every state has their own ideology and have their own unique culture and tradition.

The Modi led government is trying to eradicate the culture, tradition and history of other states.

"Congress Party's ideology is to protect, preserved the culture, history of all states across the country' Rahul said and added that Manipur should be ruled from Imphal and not from Nagpur.

The Congress President is also critical about the removal of the special status of the state.

He said Manipur is a small state and need special care; Special status should be given to state like Manipur.

Regarding the Look East Policy Rahul Gandhi said that Manipur will serve as the Bridge between India and South Asian countries and for that Manipur need to be prepared.

On the issue of corruption the Congress President also criticize the central government of invading the institution like the Judiciary and educations.

"This BJP led government is keeping in its hand on all institution which are meant to be autonomy, they think any person who wear a half Khaki pant and a lathi on one hand is eligible for the post of Vice Chancellor of University", Rahul Gandhi said referring to the appointment of RSS backed Vice Chancellor at Manipur University which spark series of agitation in the state putting halt to the academic atmosphere in the state.

The Supreme Court Judge have come out seeking public support for delivering justice and the BJP appoint its National President to a person which have murder charge.

Regarding the Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) Rahul Gandhi made his party's clear stand that they will oppose tooth and nail in any move to pass it.

If Congress come to power there will be no such Bill, rahul said.

"We will not allow CAB to become a law and we will never allow to crush the history of Manipur.

Earlier before attending the public meeting the AICC president interacted with students and professors of the state.

Rahul Gandhi talks at length on the issue of Rafale scam as question by a students and also he spoke on the issue of corruption.

Regarding the GST and demonetization , Rahul Gandhi hits harder as it has affected the small business men.

"Did any of us seen Anil Ambani, Nirav Modi, or Mukhesh Ambani stand in queues outside the bank during demonetization", Rahul question and said that the poor and middle class family are being looted and the Prime Minister Modi is giving 3500 crore rupees to Anil Ambani.
