Jaipur:Cornering the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led NDA government over its foreign policy, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Friday questioned why bilateral relations with neighbouring countries witnessed a fall after Modi came to power in 2014.
He said there is still no clarity on the situation on the India-China border in Ladakh where there was a violent face-off in which 20 Indian soldiers lost their lives.
Gehlot also demanded PM Modi to clear the situation in front of the nation.
“What is the reason behind the deteriorating relations with our neighbouring countries after the NDA government came to power. When Narendra Modi became prime minister, heads of the neighbouring nations were invited. They had come. Now, what is the reason that all neighbouring countries have turned against us,” Gehlot said, while naming Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and China.
He said it is still a mystery what happened with China.
“The prime minister should have taken the countrymen in confidence but it is unfortunate that the facts which were presented before the country was welcomed in China,” he said in a video message which he posted on Twitter with #SpeakUpForOurJawans hashtag.
