TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Rahul Gandhi reacts to the ongoing debate on whether PM Modi did in fact ask US President Donald Trump to mediate between India and Pakistan over Kashmir. “President Trump says PM Modi asked him to mediate between India & Pakistan on Kashmir! If true, PM Modi has betrayed India’s interests & 1972 Shimla Agreement.
“A weak Foreign Ministry denial won’t do. PM must tell the nation what transpired in the meeting between him & @POTUS.” Rahul tweeted the statement since he was not present in Parliament today. The Rajya Sabha was adjourned till 2 pm on Tuesday following uproar by Opposition MPs demanding Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s response on US President Donald Trump’s claim that India requested him to mediate in the Kashmir issue.
Deputy
Chairman Harivansh Narayan Singh adjourned the House after MPs raised slogans
demanding a response from the Prime Minister. The Opposition’s parliamentarians
were seeking a reply by Modi in Parliament over the issue as Trump claimed Modi
had requested him to meditate on the long-pending issue during a meeting with
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan at the White House.
