Congress MP Jeram Ramesh on Saturday questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “silence” over the repeated claims of US President Donald Trump that he stopped the struggle between India and Pakistan.
Ramesh, general secretary in charge of communication for the Congress party, said that the entire opposition will demand a special discussion on the issue in the upcoming monsoon session of Parliament, which is going to start from July 21.
“From May 10 from today, US President Donald Trump has repeated two things 24 times: first, he stopped the war between India and Pakistan; Second, he says that war should be stopped if India and Pakistan want to trade with America.
He said, “Parliament is about to begin, and the PM should break his silence. No other leader will do this. The Congress and the entire opposition will demand a special discussion, and the PM should answer. We should not want a substitute batsman. Only the PM should answer,” he said.
Reacting to the all-party meeting before the Parliament session, Congress MP Jairam Ramesh said, “This is just a formality. Rajnath Singh will come, smile, and wish everyone wishes. We will sit, and everyone will present their opinion for two hours. Continue till 1 pm.
Earlier, US President Donald Trump again claimed to have played a role in preventing the India-Pakistan struggle. Trump said he stopped the growth with the help of a business deal.
“But India and Pakistan were going on it, and they were ahead, and it was getting bigger and big, and we solved it through business. We said, you guys want to deal with a business. (AI)
