Gandhi on Wednesday had accused the Centre of having a “flawed vision” and centralising power. He said, “the idea of the king has come back”. “Earlier he used to behave like India’s ‘Yuvraj’ and now he thinks he is the ‘king’ of India,” said Rijiju in a tweet today.
Further India’s External Minister jibing the Congress leader for his over his China-Pakistan remarks argued that PM Narendra Modi’s government and its foreign policies have brought China and Pakistan together. He further tweeted remarks pointing out the relationship between China and Pakistan under the Congress reign in the 1970s.
