On Wednesday, Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh sharply criticized the Narendra Modi administration for its continued silence over US President Donald Trump's claims of mediating a ceasefire between India and Pakistan. The Congress has been pushing for clear communication from the Indian government on these assertions.

Ramesh pointed out that President Trump has repeated this claim 25 times over the past 73 days, yet Indian leadership has stayed silent. The Congress leader spotlighted Modi's focus on international travel and internal politics while ignoring significant international diplomatic matters.

The appeal from opposition parties for Prime Minister Modi to address parliament on vital issues, such as the Pahalgam terror attack and voter revisions in Bihar, has heightened tensions. Parliament sessions faced disruptions due to these demands, as political debate continues over Trump's controversial statements.
