"NDA, BJP does politics in everything": Adhir Ranjan Chowdhary

New Delhi [India], August 10 : Replying to the remarks made by Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Congress of 'politicising' the Manipur issue, party MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhary said that it is the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) that indulges in politics on every matter.
"We don't do politics. When the 26/11 Mumbai attacks were taking place, Modi ji went to Mumbai and held a press conference there. Rahul Gandhi didn't hold a press conference in Manipur. He said a few things when the press surrounded him after his meeting with Manipur Governor. NDA & BJP does politics in everything, not us", MP Adhir Ranjan said.
Earlier today, during a debate on the Opposition's No Confidence motion in Lok Sabha, Amit Shah said that doing politics over the matter is “shameful”.
“I agree that there have been incidents of violence in Manipur. No one can support such incidents. Doing politics on these incidents is shameful,” Shah said.
He further slammed the Opposition for not having a discussion over this ‘sensitive’ issue.
“From day one I was ready for the discussion on the Manipur issue but Opposition never wanted to do a discussion. If they would have not been satisfied with my points, then they should have demanded the PM’s statement. But, the Opposition was not ready to have the discussion,” Shah said in the Lower House.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah also gave a detailed response on what led to violence in Manipur and the measures taken by the government to control the situation in the state.
He further appealed to both Meitei and Kuki communities to engage in dialogue and said that violence is not a solution to any problem.
“...I assure you that we will bring peace in the state. Politics should not be done on this issue,” Shah said.
