Rahul Gandhi Mimics Modi’s Hug Diplomacy at Congress Convention

A Lighthearted Moment Turns Political

Bangladailypost.com – ম দ র আল ঙ গন স – During the Congress Organizing National Convention held in New Delhi, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi playfully referenced Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s well-known “hug diplomacy” — his habit of embracing foreign leaders. Gandhi used the opportunity to make a joke about how Modi has seemingly redefined foreign policy through physical embraces.

While delivering his speech, Gandhi stated that Modi would demonstrate his approach to international relations. He then extended both arms toward Sandeep Dixit, another Congress leader present, and mimicked the gesture of giving a hug.

I don’t know where it came from; this idea got into their heads. I don’t know who put it there or where it came from, the idea that foreign policy means hugging politicians.

Gandhi continued by expressing his confusion about how this concept emerged, noting that people often develop strange ideas. He suggested that Modi believes this approach represents proper foreign policy. Following Gandhi’s gesture, Dixit added to the humor by asking, “Did you think I was Meloni?” This remark sparked laughter among the leaders and workers in attendance. Gandhi responded with a smile, saying he had not yet reached that level.

BJP Responds to Gandhi’s Remarks

The jokes centered around Modi’s public meetings and embraces with leaders from various nations, particularly his multiple encounters with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, which generated significant discussion on social media platforms.

BJP quickly criticized Gandhi’s comments. MP Nishikant Dube shared a video from the Congress event and questioned whether Gandhi’s mental state was stable. Meanwhile, BJP leader Bandi Sanjay Kumar took to social media platform X, writing that using such low-class language about prime ministers is not politics. He described it as behavior that brings shame to India’s political sphere.

Foreign Policy Under Scrutiny

Following the hug-related jokes, Gandhi expanded his criticism of the government’s foreign policy, particularly regarding the ongoing conflict in West Asia. He raised questions about India’s position during the war and suggested that New Delhi had missed an opportunity to act as a peace mediator by leveraging its relationships with major powers.

Gandhi asserted that Iran is an old friend of India, and the country also maintains relations with both the United States and Russia. According to him, India could have played a significant role by utilizing these connections. He noted that after the war began in Iran, it presented a major opportunity for India, but the country failed to capitalize on it. Instead, Pakistan stepped forward to take on the mediation role, while India and Prime Minister Modi merely observed the situation.

China Border Concerns Raised

Gandhi also addressed the India-China border situation, specifically mentioning Arunachal Pradesh and other areas where Indian and Chinese soldiers regularly conduct border patrols. He claimed that China has been preventing India from conducting patrols, particularly in Arunachal Pradesh.

Through these statements, Rahul Gandhi has once again questioned India-China border management and the effectiveness of the government’s foreign policy. However, no immediate response has been provided by the government regarding his various remarks.
