Amid escalating domestic issues, Congress has launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he prepares to embark on a five-nation foreign tour starting July 2. The opposition party criticized the PM for allegedly dodging critical domestic issues, including the Manipur unrest and strategic blunders reported during Operation Sindoor.
General Secretary Jairam Ramesh accused Modi of avoiding accountability, particularly concerning defense setback revelations and purported comments from India's defense attache connected to Indonesia. His allegations also extend to US President Donald Trump's ceasefire claims between India and Pakistan, reportedly influenced through trade negotiations.
Despite the national turmoil, Modi's diplomatic expedition seeks to bolster ties with global powers like Brazil, Argentina, and Namibia, through engagements including the BRICS Summit. This trip aims to expand India's diplomatic footprint in the Global South while domestic controversies simmer.
