In a stark critique, CPI General Secretary D Raja raised questions about the lack of transparency in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent discussions with former US President Donald Trump. He expressed concerns over whether these talks aligned with the interests of the Global South, given Trump's 'America First' agenda.

Raja called for Modi to prioritize India's interests and critiqued his handling of both global and domestic issues. The CPI leader accused the Prime Minister of lacking transparency, especially during his US visit, and expressed disappointment over undisclosed agendas and outcomes of the meetings.

He specifically questioned the discussions' focus, asking about key issues such as tariffs, nuclear policy, and climate change.
