The Double-Engine’s Deadly Silence: Children Murdered in Sleep as PM’s ‘Peace’ Claims Go Up in Smoke

Manipur Violence News: 2 Children Killed in Sleep; PM Modi Bluffed?

IMPHAL — While the corridors of power in Delhi echo with grand declarations of a “normalized” Manipur, the ground reality in the Northeast has descended into a gruesome nightmare. On Tuesday morning, the hollow promises of the Modi-led government were shattered—not by words, but by a rocket-propelled projectile that tore through a family home in Tronglaobi Awang Leikai, Bishnupur, killing two children as they slept.

The victims—a five-year-old boy and his five-month-old infant sister—never stood a chance. Their mother remains in critical condition, fighting for her life in an ICU, a living testament to the catastrophic failure of the “Double-Engine” government to protect its most vulnerable citizens.

Where is the ‘Vishwaguru’ While Manipur Burns?

For over three years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has maintained a baffling, almost surgical silence on the Manipur crisis. Even as drones and rockets now target civilian bedrooms, the PM’s “Man ki Baat” remains conspicuously devoid of the cries of Manipur’s mothers.

The tragedy in Bishnupur is not just a security lapse; it is a monumental political betrayal.

  • The “All is Well” Bluff: While the BJP leadership tells the nation that peace has returned, long-range weaponry is being used to assassinate infants in the dead of night.
  • Zero Accountability: Despite the presence of thousands of central forces, militants are operating with such impunity that they can launch rocket attacks on residential villages.
  • The CRPF Clash: Instead of answers, the grieving public met with tear gas and bullets. Protests erupted at the CRPF camp near Tronglaobi, leading to further deaths and injuries as security forces turned their barrels toward the very citizens they were sent to protect.

A Pattern of Abandonment

The death of these children is the latest entry in a long ledger of blood that the BJP administration refuses to acknowledge. The state government, led by CM Y. Khemchand Singh (who recently replaced Biren Singh in a desperate attempt to reset the narrative), has followed the old script: suspend the internet, impose a curfew, and hope the news doesn’t reach the mainland.

“They promised us security. They told us the borders were sealed and the hills were quiet,” said a local protester near the Moirang Police Station. “But our children are being blown up in their beds. Where is the Prime Minister? Why does he have time for every election rally but not for a single visit to our burning homes?”

The National Cost of Neglect

By ignoring Manipur, the Modi government has allowed a border state to become a laboratory for unchecked violence. The use of sophisticated projectiles suggests a terrifying escalation that the Centre seems content to watch from a distance.

The blood of the five-month-old infant in Bishnupur is on the hands of an administration that prioritizes image over impact and optics over lives. As the internet goes dark again in the valley districts, the question remains: How many more children must die before the PM’s “Double-Engine” stops running on the fuel of apathy?
