We will try to make the Government realise that an integral part of this country, Manipur is burning. We urge the Government to save Manipur and shoulder their Constitutional duty.

In Rajya Sabha, Union Minister Piyush Goyal said, "It is unfortunate that such an important issue is being politicised. This is a question of India's image and dignity on international forums. These people with black clothes and black hearts don't understand the rising strength of the country. What is hidden in their black hearts? Are they hiding black money in the garb of black clothes? Even crows are getting attracted to them off late.“

LoP and Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge said that the PM Modi is "disrespecting" the Parliament by not coming to the House and making a statement on Manipur. "We are demanding that the PM come there and make a statement but he is giving political speeches and campaigning in Rajasthan. When he can go there, can't he come to the House for half an hour and make a statement?“ he told news agency ANI. "It means that has no interest, no faith in democracy. He doesn't want to protect democracy and the constitution. He is disrespecting the Parliament," Kharge added.

"PM Modi had said that Opposition can bring no-confidence Motion in 2023 once again. They have come prepared. But there is a little divide there. Congress party, as per its usual attitude, did not consult the other Opposition parties. First, there should be confidence among Opposition parties, among each other," said Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi.
"After that, they can talk about people's confidence in PM Modi. People showed this in 2014, 2019 and even in 2024, they will show the credibility of PM Modi. Moving No-Confidence Motion and wearing black clothes will serve no purpose," he added.
