Amid nationwide outrage over a video showing two Kuki-Zo tribal women being paraded naked by a mob in Manipur, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said that the government is ready for a discussion in the parliament concerning the incident.

"Manipur incident is definitely very serious and understanding the situation, PM himself has said that what happened in Manipur has put the entire nation to shame. PM has said that strictest action will be taken over the incident. We do want a discussion in Parliament over Manipur. I had said this in the All Party Meeting and I reiterate this in the Parliament that we want a discussion in the House over Manipur," Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said.

He further claimed that?a few political parties are "unnecessarily" creating a situation in the Parliament?so that the discussion on Manipur can't take place. "I am clearly levelling allegations that this Opposition is not serious over Manipur as they should have been...," Rajnath Singh further alleged.?
