Congress Challenges PM Modi's Silence on US Tariff Policies

Congress leader Pawan Khera criticizes PM Modi for inaction against US tariffs and questions influence of US on Indian policies. Khera highlights Modi's response to Trump's tariff threats and accuses government of biased foreign funding allegations.

In a scathing critique of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress leader Pawan Khera on Friday questioned Modi's lack of action against US policies, including reciprocal tariffs and the supply of F-35 fighter jets, labeled as 'junk' by Elon Musk.

At a press conference, Khera denounced Modi for ostensibly succumbing to US President Donald Trump's trade threats, including ending BRICS and imposing tariffs on India's pharmaceuticals and auto sectors, while maintaining a passive stance.

Additionally, Khera accused the government of selectively accusing Congress of accepting foreign funding, recalling past protests led by public figures allegedly financed by international agencies. He highlighted the inconsistency in such claims, noting former protests involving figures aligned with USAID and the Ford Foundation. (ANI)
