New Delhi, July 27 (IANS) AAP leader and Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha on Thursday once again hit out at the BJP over its "failure" in curbing the Manipur violence .


He said that the state, which is an integral part of India, is facing a turmoil, while the Modi government is consistently failing to fulfill its constitutional obligations to restore peace.


On Thursday, the MPs belonging to the INDIA alliance made a powerful statement by wearing black clothes in Parliament to condemn the atrocities and brutality faced by the people of Manipur.


Chadha emphasised that the gesture was a symbolic protest to show solidarity with the people of Manipur during this distressing time.


He further added that the aim is to convey to the government that silence on the suffering of Manipur's people is unacceptable, and they must take decisive action.

He called for the immediate dissolution of the state government and the removal of Chief Minister N. Biren Singh.
