Rahul’s Jibe Draws Attention in Pakistan

Rahul Gandhi, while addressing a Congress convention in Bhopal on Tuesday, launched a fierce attack on Prime Minister Modi over the recent ceasefire agreement with Pakistan. Referring to Modi as “Narendra Surrender,” Rahul alleged that India only agreed to halt operations against Pakistan after US President Donald Trump made a call to PM Modi.

“I know the BJP-RSS mindset. They panic under pressure. Trump called Modiji and asked what he was doing. He said ‘Narendra Surrender,’ and Modiji immediately responded with a ‘Ji Huzoor’,” Gandhi said, taking a sarcastic jab at the Prime Minister.
