Congress MP Rahul Gandhi's visit to Germany has sparked criticism, prompting party leader Imran Masood to defend him. Masood questioned why Prime Minister Narendra Modi's international engagements are praised while Gandhi's trips invite scrutiny.

Gandhi's trip, announced during the Parliamentary Winter Session, has faced backlash from BJP leaders, accusing him of lacking dedication to his role. In contrast, Modi's presence with notable figures like the Prince of Jordan is often celebrated.

Upon his arrival in Berlin, Gandhi received a warm welcome from the Indian Overseas Congress. During his visit, he also addressed India's declining manufacturing sector, emphasizing the need for increased production to drive economic growth.
