Shiv Sena-Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray has slammed the Center and Manipur BJP governments for the communal violence in Manipur, under the name ‘Manipur Files’… Mumbai: Shiv Sena-Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray, who has slammed the Center and the Manipur BJP governments for the communal violence in Manipur, said on Saturday that a film should be made under the name ‘Manipur Files’. In an editorial in Sena-UBT mouthpiece Saamna, which slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh, it said the violence and atrocities in the northeastern state were worse than Kashmir.
A video shot on May 4 surfaced on Wednesday, sparking nationwide outrage over an incident in Manipur where two women from one community were paraded naked by some men from another community. In recent times, films like Tashkent Files, The Kerala Story and The Kashmir Files have been produced. Samna said that the same people should make a film ‘Manipur Files’ on the violence going on in Manipur now. If there was a non-BJP government in Manipur, the Shiv Sena would have been sacked by now, alleging that Manipur is politically unimportant to Prime Minister Modi and the situation there is being ignored.
