Former Congress Chief Rahul Gandhi is set to release the second video over the ongoing India - China border standoff. The video will be released on Monday, on Rahul Gandhi's official social media handle.

This is going to be Rahul's second video of his new short format digital video series. Rahul Gandhi earlier this week released a video where he breaks down the reasons that he feels have contributed to China being emboldened to act against India.

The 3 minutes and 38 seconds long video was shared on his Twitter page on Friday. In the post, he wrote, "Since 2014, the PM’s constant blunders and indiscretions have fundamentally weakened India and left us vulnerable. Empty words don’t suffice in the world of geopolitics."

Party in a statement on Sunday said that first video of Rahul's new short format digital video series had received millions of views across social and mainstream media. Party mentioned that Rahul's first video invited over 2.5 million views on his Twitter handle alone

"This is an issue of critical national importance that every patriotic Indian should be concerned about," the statement added.

Gandhi focused on foreign affairs in the video and said that India’s relationship with the west and neigbhouring countries has deteriorated. The Wayanad Congress MP had cited India's poor relations with its neighbouring nations, its transactional relations with countries like the US and Europe, and poor economic standing as the issues.

Gandhi who has been criticising the government regarding the economic impact of the pandemic and lockdown, said, "Our pride, something that India used to go to the rest of the world and talk about, boast about, worst economic growth in 50 years no end in sight.  Absolute disaster. Unemployment highest in 40 - 50 years so our strengths have suddenly become our weaknesses."
