The Congress termed as “completely unacceptable” US President Donald Trump’s ‘library’ jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Senior leader Ahmed Patel asked the Government to remind America of India’s assistance to Afghanistan.
Patel tweeted: “Tenor and tone of the US president describing the Prime Minister of India is not in good taste and is completely unacceptable. Hope our government responds firmly and reminds America that since 2004, India has built extensive roads, dams in Afghanistan and pledged over USD 3 billion in assistance.” Congress’ chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said India does not need sermons from the US on Afghanistan. “Dear Mr. Trump, Stop mocking India’s PM. India doesn’t need sermons from the US on Afghanistan,” he tweeted.
