Why was PM silent over rapes in Manipur?

The media will not tell us what exactly was said, in what context and circumstances, where and by which insignificant person.

Further that this is no big deal for those who insult mother India and mothers and sisters of India. The BJP organizes rallies all over India, violence and ink thrown on Congress office, Rahul Gandhi must apologise and the mainstream media goes to town in the same vein! Where was all this when women were paraded naked and raped in Manipur and other atrocities? Old women and infants being raped and absolute silence from the PM? Let us have some balance in hate and instigation of discord, especially from those at the top of the power pyramid.
