New Delhi: Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Friday criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his delayed visit to Manipur, saying it came only after two years of unrest and suffering in the state.
Speaking about the visit, Priyanka Gandhi said, “I am glad that he has decided after 2 years that it’s worth his visiting. He should have visited much long before. It’s very unfortunate that he has allowed what is happening there to happen for so long, so many people to get killed and so many people to go through so much strife before he has decided to visit.”
She further added, “That has not been the tradition of Prime Ministers in India. Right through, no matter which party they were, wherever there was pain, wherever there was suffering, they would go. That has been the tradition since independence. So, he is fulfilling it after 2 years, I think he should have thought of it before.”
