New Delhi: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Tuesday criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s foreign policy, questioning the effectiveness of his frequent international trips.
Kharge alleged that despite Modi’s 151 foreign visits to 72 countries, including 10 trips to the US, India seems isolated on the global stage.
Kharge questioned whether these trips have yielded meaningful results for India’s global standing.
He accused PM Modi of making foreign visits more focused on photo opportunities than diplomatic achievements.
In a post on X, Kharge said, “PM Modi has been making frequent foreign trips for the last 11 years, but our India is now alone! In the last 11 years, Prime Minister Modi has made 151 foreign trips and visited 72 countries. Out of these, he has visited the US 10 times. Yet, our country stands alone under the Modi government’s foreign policy. Is it the Prime Minister’s job to visit foreign countries and only pose for photos?”
Kharge highlighted the International Monetary Fund (IMF’s) USD 1.4 billion loan to Pakistan and the sudden ceasefire declaration during anti-terror operations as examples of India’s diminishing influence.
“In addition, the IMF has provided support by providing a loan of $1.4 billion to Pakistan. A ceasefire was suddenly declared while our brave Army was conducting operations against terrorists,” he added in his post.
He criticised Modi for not addressing US President Trump’s claims of brokering the India-Pakistan ceasefire, suggesting a lack of clarity and transparency in India’s foreign policy.
“The US President has insulted our country by saying, “I brokered” the ceasefire between India and Pakistan about 7 times. The entire country was united in the tough action against terrorists, but Modi ji is trying to cover up the issue by not providing clarity to the people of the country regarding US President Trump’s statements, so far,” added the Congress President.
