New Delhi: Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi drew attention in Parliament on Monday by carrying a handbag with the word “Palestine” prominently displayed. This act is seen as a demonstration of her solidarity with the Palestinian people amid the ongoing military conflict with Israel.

Priyanka has been outspoken about the Israel-Gaza conflict, calling Israeli actions in Gaza “barbaric and inhuman.” The image of her smiling while carrying the bag sparked a range of reactions on social media, with some netizens expressing shock or surprise at her public endorsement of the Palestinian cause.

Her support for Palestine comes a day after a meeting with the Palestinian embassy’s charge d’affaires, Abed Elrazeg Abu Jazer. The diplomat had visited her at her residence to congratulate her on her Lok Sabha victory in Wayanad and discussed India’s potential leadership role in pushing for a ceasefire in the Israel-Gaza conflict.

Priyanka has condemned Israel’s military actions in Gaza, calling them a violation of international law. She stated that it is the moral duty of all people, including Israeli citizens who oppose violence, to denounce the Israeli government’s actions and pressure them to stop.
