In response to Rahul Gandhi's comments on the situation in Manipur during the debate on the no trust motion against the Narendra Modi government, Smriti Irani has asserted that the state is an integral part of India and is not divided.

Earlier, Rahul Gandhi had stated, “By killing the people of Manipur, you have murdered Bharat Mata. You are not patriots. You are traitors. You are not protectors of Bharat Mata, but her murderer.” He also added, "The Indian Army has the capability to restore peace in Manipur within one day, but the government has not utilized their services."

He continued, "The fire you have ignited is causing suffering throughout the entire country."

Smriti Irani emphasised that the Congress party does not represent the entire nation and accused them of defining corruption and incompetence in India.
