April 29, 2025

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday (April 28, 2025) targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi for skipping the all-party meeting called to discuss the Pahalgam terror attack that left 26 people dead, The Hindu reported yesterday (28)

"It is the misfortune of the country that when the pride of the country was hurt, you [PM Modi] were giving an election speech in Bihar," he said addressing the 'Samvidhan Bachao' rally in Jaipur.

"Leaders of all parties attended the all-party meeting, but it is sad that PM Modi did not come to that meeting. Was Bihar far away? The PM should have come to the all-party meeting and explained the plan. What help does he need from us?" he said.
