Modi's Vision for India: Peace, Progress, and Confidence

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that peace is gradually returning to the strife-torn state of Manipur, where sectarian clashes have resulted in the deaths of at least 180 people and the displacement of tens of thousands since May. The government has deployed security forces to quell the violence, which has been fueled by competition for government benefits. Modi condemned the sexual assaults that have occurred during the clashes and promised tough action, but opposition parties accuse his government of not doing enough to end the violence. Civil rights groups in Manipur are calling for financial aid and legal support to restore normalcy.
