In a fiery address during the Zero Hour in Lok Sabha, Opposition Leader Rahul Gandhi accused China of seizing 4,000 square kilometers of Indian land, an assertion that sparked a vehement response from the ruling BJP. Gandhi also lambasted the Modi administration for celebrating diplomatic milestones with China amid territorial tensions.

Gandhi criticized the government's handling of US tariffs, which he claimed would devastate crucial sectors of the Indian economy, including the auto industry and agriculture. Highlighting a divergence in foreign policy philosophies, he accused the BJP of being subservient to foreign powers.

In response, BJP officials refuted Gandhi's claims, emphasizing that no territorial concessions were made under Modi, pointing instead to historical precedents during Congress rule. BJP MPs also lauded PM Narendra Modi's leadership on the global stage, aligning with influential world figures.
