The Congress, which has been blaming the N Biren Singh government in Manipur over the current situation, has stepped up its attack at the BJP after the video of two women being stripped, paraded, and sexually assaulted surfaced on social media.

Manipur Police on Saturday arrested one more accused who is a juvenile, taking the total number of arrests in Manipur women assault case to six.

In March, Gandhi was disqualified from Lok Sabha as a member following his conviction by a Gujarat’s court in a 2019 defamation case.
