Congress MP from eastern Assam’s Jorhat, Gaurav Gogoi, on June 11 said that he did not expect Prime Minister Narendra Modi to heed Rastriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat’s advice on conflict-scarred Manipur.
Speaking in public for the first time after the Lok Sabha election results on June 4, the RSS chief said the new government at the Centre should get over the election rhetoric and focus on problems across the country. He stressed the need to resolve the ongoing ethnic conflict in Manipur that broke out on May 3, 2023.
“I do not expect Prime Minister Modi to pay any attention to the words of RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat. Prime Minister Modi will avoid Manipur, misuse law enforcement agencies and try to bend the Indian Constitution,” Mr. Gogoi posted on X.
“Thankfully, the people have chosen the INDIA alliance to speak up on its behalf and defend the Indian Parliament and the Constitution,” he added.

Did you know ages ago people used to rest their heads on a HARD ROCK? So how did humans go from sleeping on stones to cosy, fluffy and soft pillows today? Let’s get into the origin of your everyday pillows!
As the November 30 deadline nears for installing vehicle location tracking devices (VLTD) and emergency panic buttons in public service and nationally permitted goods vehicles in Karnataka, transport unions representing cab, bus, and truck operators are urging the government to reconsider the mandate. They argue that the high cost of these devices and a lack of awareness have made it difficult for many vehicle owners to comply with the requirement.
