Gehlot also criticised Modi for not directly addressing Trump’s remarks, saying that despite provocations, the prime minister has never publicly commented the US president’s comments.

The senior Congress leader also accused China and Pakistan of openly aligning against India.

“While our armed forces have responded strongly, India is left isolated politically and diplomatically,” he said, calling it a “failure” of Modi’s leadership.

“Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who boasts of his ’56-inch chest’, is proving to be a weak leader,” Gehlot alleged.
