“Don’t Politicise War,” Says Priyanka Gandhi as She Questions Government’s Plan for Indians Abroad
Amid rising tensions due to the ongoing conflict in West Asia, a political exchange has intensified in New Delhi. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has urged the government to focus on solutions rather than political statements, emphasizing that lives are at stake.
Responding to remarks by Narendra Modi, she said that this is not the time for politics when people are facing danger due to war. “Bombs are falling, and lives are at risk. The real question is—what is being done to bring our people back safely?” she asked while speaking to reporters at Parliament.
She highlighted concerns for Indians stranded in Gulf countries, stressing the need for a clear evacuation plan. According to her, the entire nation stands united during such crises, but meaningful discussions are necessary to find practical solutions.
Raising broader concerns, Priyanka Gandhi also pointed to the economic impact of the conflict, including rising prices of gas cylinders and the possibility of fuel shortages. She questioned how the government plans to handle these challenges if the situation worsens.
She further called for a detailed discussion in Parliament, saying that open debate would help bring forward ideas from all sides and lead to better solutions during such a critical time.
The government, meanwhile, has stated that efforts are underway to minimise the impact of the West Asia conflict on India, with ongoing diplomatic initiatives.
