As INDIA MPs who have toured the violence-hit areas of Manipur met the President today, other opposition MPs are still keeping their outrage over the unrest in the northeast alive in Parliament. All of this even though Lok Sabha speaker omilla has already agreed to take up the no confidence motion against the BJP LED India government next week the debate will
be held from the 8th to 10th of August and prime minister Narendra Modi will reply to the motion on the 10th of August what is interesting is that the outcome of this no confidence motion is a foregone conclusion because the opposition simply doesn't have the numbers even if the entire opposition votes against the government they would have less than 210
votes on the other hand the needs the support of 272 MPS to win the government no confidence Force the BJP alone has 301 members in the Lok Sabha so why is the opposition with around 141 seats in the Lok Sabha going ahead with this knowing very well that it cannot win the answer lies the Optics while it will not have the winning
numbers the India Bloc may still win the Battle of perception . The opposition is hell-bent on forcing the PM to make a statement on manipul and the no confidence vote is their way of ensuring it PM Modi did address the Manipur issue the day Parliament convened for the monsoon session on the 20th of July but this did not satisfy the opposition and they have
since insisted on a no confidence motion since according to protocol the Prime Minister being the head of the Council of ministers responds to a debate when a no ministers responds to a debate when a no speak will not only serve what might be seen as a victory for the opposition after allegations of the PM's reluctance to speak on the subject especially
on the collapse of the State Law and Order Machinery of Manipur but it will also be a show of strength for the opposition and show that it can work unitedly additionally it could damage the double Indian sarkar model that the bjb promotes at all election rallies Manipur has clearly put a question mark on that model however the Battle of Optics is unlikely to go
entirely the opposition screen there will be some victories for the NDA team with the PM victories for the NDA team with the PM speaking the NDA will get a chance to control the narrative especially if the PM brings up crimes against women in chattisgarh or Rajasthan as he did outside the parliament on the first day of this session is the best man is the PM
could also punch holes in the opposition's facade of unity bringing up 2024. all in all it's a balancing act its lack of consensus on a PM's face for for both sides even though the outcome is already decided .
