New Delhi: Domestic political tempers have flared over recent international developments concerning Israel, with senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi launching a pointed attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Raising sharp questions on India’s diplomatic positioning, Rahul Gandhi asked the government to clarify where the country stands on the sensitive geopolitical issue.
What Rahul Gandhi Said
The government must clearly spell out India’s position on the Israel-related developments.
India’s foreign policy, he said, should be guided by humanitarian values and peace.
Decisions must safeguard India’s global image and moral standing at international forums.
Gandhi alleged that the government has avoided articulating a transparent and unambiguous stance on the matter.
Government’s Position So Far
The Centre has officially maintained that India supports peace, dialogue, and diplomatic resolution of conflicts. According to government statements, sustainable solutions can only emerge through engagement and negotiations rather than escalation.
Political Implications
Political observers believe the opposition is attempting to corner the ruling establishment on foreign policy clarity. Meanwhile, leaders from the ruling party argue that foreign policy should not be politicized for domestic gains.
With Parliament sessions and public debates ahead, the issue is expected to intensify in the coming days, potentially evolving into a broader political flashpoint.
