Rahul Gandhi, a leader of the Congress party, launched a scathing attack on the economic policies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, accusing them of turning India into a 'dead economy'.

His comments followed US President Donald Trump's announcement of a 25% tariff on Indian goods, labeling India and Russia as 'dead economies'. Gandhi supported Trump's assertion, stating it was a widely recognized fact, excluding Modi and Sitharaman.

Gandhi further criticized BJP for allegedly prioritizing interests of billionaire Gautam Adani, while asserting that India's global diplomatic efforts have failed as countries don't condemn Pakistan, despite the External Affairs Minister's praise of foreign policies.
