New Delhi: The Congress raised questions on Tuesday on whether BJP leaders, including Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, sought the help of "Kuki militants" during the Manipur election and said he has no right to continue in office pending investigations.
Congress general secretary Randeep Surjewala asked whether reports of Sarma and former Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) general secretary Ram Madhav seeking the help of "Kuki militants" during the polls in the northeastern state were true and whether Prime minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah had approved this.
"Were the PM and HM aware of help sought from 'Kuki militants'? If yes, how could they sanction it? If not, why were they blissfully unaware? Does it not brazenly compromise our national interests? Do electoral gains far outweigh the interests of the country for Modi government?" Surjewala asked on Twitter.
