There is a deadlock in parliament over the Manipur incident. The five days of the Monsoon Session have been spent discussing the issue and demanding PM Modi's statement. The opposition wants the Manipur issue to be discussed in parliament and before that PM Modi will come and make a statement in Parliament. Opposition MPs are raising slogans about this demand for five days and parliament is being adjourned for a while. The opposition has strategically moved a no-confidence motion to discuss this issue. The Speaker has accepted the no-confidence motion. Before the discussion, now major actions have been initiated in Anan Panan under which the Ministry of home Affairs has handed over the case to the CBI.
