Rahul Gandhi’s Claims on PM Modi’s Invite: A Political Showdown in Parliament
On a recent day in the Lok Sabha, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi made headlines by stating that External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar traveled to Washington to lobby for Prime Minister Modi’s invitation to the US President’s inauguration. This assertion was met with swift denial and protests from the treasury benches, prompting a heated exchange.
Jaishankar refuted Gandhi’s claim, clarifying that his visit involved discussions with the US Secretary of State and the National Security Advisor, but no invitation for the Prime Minister was on the agenda. “Our PM does not attend such events… Rahul’s lies may be intended politically, but they damage the nation abroad,” he stated emphatically.
Education Minister’s Response
Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan also chimed in, labeling Gandhi’s remarks as “frivolous and objectionable.” He emphasized that in the spirit of democratic parliamentary tradition, both governing and opposition parties have historically united on foreign policy matters. Pradhan criticized Gandhi’s approach as one that consistently positions him against national interests.
Manufacturing Concerns and Technology Gaps
During the session, Gandhi highlighted the decline in manufacturing’s contribution to GDP, stating it has dropped to a 60-year low. He contrasted India’s situation with China’s lead in critical technology sectors, warning that this gap could significantly impact national security and technological advancement.
In an effort to present an alternative vision, Gandhi proposed that a future INDIA bloc government would prioritize technology, production, and caste census initiatives to drive social change. He expressed a belief that implementing an AI-driven caste census could lead to a significant social revolution in India.
