Prime Minister Narendra Modi is under fire as the Congress party accuses him of failing to categorically dismiss US President Donald Trump's repeated claims about mediating an India-Pakistan ceasefire.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi asserts that Modi's reluctance to confront Trump exposes his vulnerability, suggesting that the Indian Prime Minister fears Trump's potential revelations.

The ongoing controversy stems from Trump's assertions of brokered peace between the neighboring nations, which India argues were resolved through direct military talks rather than external intervention.
