Rahul attacks PM Modi, says satellite images show China has intruded into India

Amid tensions at the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi again targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying that satellite images show that Chinese troops have intruded into Indian territory.

 “Prime Minister said no body intruded and no body has occupied our territory, but the satellite images show clearly that China near Pangong lake has occupied the holy land of Bharat Mata,” Rahul Gandhi alleged, using an image with the tweet shown by one of the TV channels.

 Earlier on Sunday, Rahul Gandhi attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying, “Narendra Modi is actually Surender Modi.”

This was in continuation of his attack on Saturday when he said, “Prime Minister has surrendered Indian territory to Chinese aggression.” The barb came a day after the Prime Minister asserted in the all party meeting that Chinese troops did not intrude into Indian territory.

The war of words started after 20 Indian soldiers, including an officer, were killed in an unprecedented violent clash with Chinese PLA troops in Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh on June 15.

However, Prime Minister Office om Saturday clarified and countered opposition’s attack, saying “attempts are being made in some quarters to give a mischievous interpretation” to his remark at the All-Party Meeting held on Friday on Galwan stand-off. The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said, the PM specifically emphasized Indian forces now decisively counter any violations on LAC (unhe rokte hain, unhe tokte hain) in contrast to the past neglect of such challenges.
