Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi asking “who took our land” along the Line of Actual Control (LAC).
“Ladakhis say: China took our land. PM says: Nobody took our land. Obviously, someone is lying,” Rahul tweeted.
Rahul has been constantly attacking the PM over the Indo-China border issue. The former Congress chief also shared a video clip of people from the region alleging that China has come into Indian territory.
Titled “Ladakh Speaks”, the video had people across the divide alleging China has ingressed into Ladakh. The clip ends asking “Why is the PM silent?”
In one of his earlier tweets, Rahul Gandhi played upon the word surrender to take a swipe at the PM, calling him “Surender Modi”, and alleging that China has been building its presence along the LAC.
Without naming China, that has been trying to encroach into Indian territory in Galwan valley and Pangong Tso and create new boundary disputes, Modi today in Ladakh said the era of expansion was over. This is the time for development, not expansion, PM said.
The grand old party further demanded the PM to convene special Parliament session to discuss the matter saying, “history has proven that every Government is eventually answerable to Indian Parliament.”
The Congress also asked about the measures taken by the PM after China made a Mandarin signage 8 km into the Indian territory in Pangong Tso Lake and entered 423 metres into Galwan Valley.
Congress chief spokesman Randeep Surjewala took to Twitter and said that Modi did not name China. “Why is PM so weak? Why escape from naming China? When will we give a direct answer to China?”
