New Delhi: External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar Thursday slammed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his comments outside India questioning the nation’s democracy.
“Rahul Gandhi is habitual of criticising the country and making comments on our politics whenever he goes out of the country. The world is looking at us and what are they seeing?”
“Elections are held, sometimes one party wins and some other times the other party wins. If there is no democracy in the country, such a change should not come. Results for all elections should be the same,” said the EAM.
The union minister said that there are no issues if the Congress leader makes statement inside India. He said, “2024 ka result toh wahi hoga, hamein pata hai… I have no objection to whatever he does inside the country but I don’t think taking national politics out of the country is in the national interest.”
