Narendra Modi Government Has Lost Moral Right to Continue: Congress

New Delhi: Launching a scathing attack on the Narendra Modi government over its alleged mishandling of Jammu and Kashmir and relations with Pakistan, the Congress on Friday said the government has lost its right to continue in the office. “Pakistan policy is an oxymoron because there is no Pakistan policy. What we have is momentary, knee-jerk, transient responses which depend on the mood of the moment,” Congress spokesman Abhishek Manu Singhvi said here after the Ministry of External Affairs on Thursday confirmed a meeting between External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and her Pakistan counterpart on the sidelines of the annual UN General Assembly meet. He questioned the Modi government’s decision asking how could talks happen when outfits like Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba were still operating out of Pakistan soil and posing grave threat to not just the peace of subcontinent but the entire globe. “Recently, for the first time in the last 70 years, Russia and Pakistan have conducted a joint military exercise. Russia is also selling MI-35 helicopters to Pakistan under a defence cooperation pact,” Singhvi said. (IANS)
