WHITE House trade advisor Peter Navarro's "Brahmins profiteering" remark in reference to US President Donald Trump's additional 25 percent tariff on India buying Russian oil has sparked mixed reactions from opposition parties as well as Sanjeev Sanyal, a member of the Prime Minister's Economic Advisory Council.
Congress leader Pawan Khera termed the assertion "baseless", adding, "America should not make baseless statements like this."
Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi called Navarro's remarks "shameful" and "sinister", stating that "his meltdown is reaching peak level of senility".
