The Modi government has scheduled an all-party meeting on the war in West Asia for 25th March (Wednesday) at 5 PM. Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi on 24th March (Tuesday) has stated that he will not be able to attend it due to an event in Kerala. He subsequently attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi, reiterating his accusations of ineffective foreign policy and suggesting he is following directives from the United States.
“I would not be able to attend because I have a program in Kerala. An all-party meeting should take place, but a structural blunder has been made, and this cannot be fixed, especially since the Prime Minister cannot. He will do whatever America says and will not work in the interest of the farmers and the country. He will do whatever America and Israel say,” he alleged.

The leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha termed India’s foreign policy as PM Modi’s “personal” policy and declared that it was a “universal joke.” He once again invoked the “PM Modi is compromised” allegation and added that he is following orders from President Donald Trump. “Our foreign policy is PM Modi’s personal foreign policy. Everyone considers this a universal joke. Donald Trump knows exactly what PM Modi can and cannot do. If the Prime Minister is compromised, our foreign policy is compromised,” he accused.

The Gandhi scion referred to PM Modi’s speech in Parliament as “irrelevant” and accused him of causing “suffering” due to his inability to take a stand, comparing the current situation to the 2019 Coronavirus pandemic.
“He made an irrelevant speech in the Parliament yesterday. It should seem that he is India’s Prime Minister, but there is no position. People will have to suffer due to this. It is just the beginning where LPG and Petrol prices have risen. He claims the situation will be like Covid, but he forgot how many people died during Covid and the number of tragedies that took place,” the Rae Bareli MP insisted.
An all-party meeting has been called by the government to address the growing tensions in the Middle East and its potential effects on the nation. The action is taken as regional tensions worsen, impacting international trade and energy supply. However, the government has repeatedly assured that there is no energy crisis, and India possesses an adequate supply of fuel and gas, including in its reserves. The same point was reiterated by PM Modi during his speech in the lower house.
