Indian Opposition Stages Walk-Out as PM Modi Refuses to Address Manipur
Posted on 2023-08-11 14:07:13
In India, opposition parties in Parliament staged a walk-out yesterday to
protest Prime Minister Narendra Modi's refusal to address spiralling ethnic
violence in Manipur state.

The opposition had tabled a no-confidence vote in Modi to force him speak
about the crisis in the far-eastern state, which many have described as
approaching civil war.

However, Modi did not touch on the crisis until opposition lawmakers began to
walk out in protest, 90 minutes into his speech.

Even then, India's leader had few words about Manipur, simply promising that
peace would be restored soon.

The Modi government's huge majority in Parliament meant the no-confidence
motion was defeated, as expected.
