In Delhi, BJP leader Nalin Kohli responded to Congress MP Rahul Gandhi’s remarks in Texas, saying, “Rahul Gandhi is the leader of the opposition in the world’s largest democracy. When he speaks abroad, he should consider whether his statements are fully accurate and if they could negatively impact India’s image. He praises China extensively but never discusses why India-China relations have deteriorated. He talks about history and the RSS but fails to acknowledge India’s glorious past. Yoga, which originated in India, is celebrated by over 150 countries, yet Gandhi rarely mentions it. If Gandhi wants to discuss India’s image, he should present a balanced view.” Kohli’s comments highlight the ongoing political debate regarding international statements made by Indian leaders.
