NEW DELHI: Leader of opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi said that India’s foreign policy was Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “personal” policy and called it a “universal joke”. He further accused that the prime minister was “compromised”, adding that he was acting upon US President Donald Trump’s directions.”Our foreign policy is PM Modi’s personal foreign policy… Everyone considers this a universal joke… Donald Trump knows exactly what PM Modi can and cannot do. If the Prime Minister is compromised, our foreign policy is compromised,” he said.He further raised concerns about the rising LPG and fuel prices in the nation saying that if the PM thinks the situation would be like Covid, then he should remeber the number of deaths during the pandemic.

“He made an irrelevant speech in the Parliament yesterday… It should seem that he is India’s Prime Minister, but there is no position… People will have to suffer due to this. It is just the beginning where LPG and petrol prices have risen… He claims the situation will be like Covid, but he forgot how many people died during Covid and the amount of tragedies that took place,” he said. “All-party meeting should take place, but a structural blunder has been made… And this cannot be fixed, especially the Prime Minister cannot. He will do whatever America says and will not work in the interest of the farmers and the country. He will do whatever America and Israel say,” he said. PM Modi spoke in Rajya Sabha earlier in the day and said India had adequate crude oil reserves and strong supply arrangements despite the ongoing West Asia conflict. He noted that the country has expanded its strategic petroleum reserves and boosted refining capacity, even as disruptions impact global trade through the Strait of Hormuz.He has also called for an all-party meet on Wednesday. Rahul said that he would not be able to attend the meeting saying that he has a program in the poll-bound state of Kerala. “I would not be able to attend because I have a program in Kerala. All-party meeting should take place, but a structural blunder has been made,” he said.
