Manipur Violence: KTR seeks intervention of PM and HM to save Manipur

HYDERABAD: Minister for IT, Industries, MA&UD, Government of Telangana and BRS party working president KT Rama Rao (KTR), expressed deep concern and anguish over the distressing incident in Manipur where Kuki women have been subjected to heinous acts of violence by the mob.

In a tweet on Thursday, he drew attention to the alarming situation and the need for immediate action to address the issue.

"We Indians were raging against Taliban when they were disrespecting children and women. Now in our own country, Kuki women being paraded naked and sexually assaulted by the Meitei mob in Manipur is a distressing and nauseous reminder of how barbarism has been normalized in new India,”

He wanted to know where was Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah when this horrific incident took place. “While every shred of dignity in Manipur is burning, please set aside everything and use all your time and energy to Save Manipur," the BRS working president said.

KTR’s heartfelt appeal highlighted the urgency and seriousness of the situation in Manipur. The incident involving the assault and humiliation of Kuki women was an alarming reminder that such acts of violence must not be tolerated in any civilized society.

“As responsible citizens of India, it is our collective responsibility to stand against any form of violence and safeguard the dignity and safety of all individuals, regardless of their region or community,” he added.
