Hitting back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his charge that Indira Gandhi gave away Katchatheevu island to Sri Lanka, Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge questions why Modi did not take steps to get it back during his 10-year rule. Kharge also questions Modi’s clean chit to China after 20 soldiers sacrificed their lives in the Galwan Valley incident. Kharge reminds that Katchatheevu island was given to Sri Lanka as part of a friendly agreement and highlights India’s similar gesture towards Bangladesh. He further comments on Modi’s obsession with the Congress and urges him to reflect on his own misdeeds. Kharge criticizes Modi’s foreign policy concerning neighboring countries and claims that Pakistan buying weapons from Russia is a result of Modi’s failures. He emphasizes Congress’ contributions to India’s unity and territorial integrity and accuses Modi of weakening it. Kharge concludes by urging Modi to stop targeting the Congress and focus on his own actions that have caused suffering to India. Prime Minister Modi counters by citing a media report to claim that the Congress callously gave away Katchatheevu island. Modi accuses the Congress of weakening India’s unity, integrity, and interests throughout its history.
