The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) took a dig at the Congress party after senior leader Shashi Tharoor made a U-turn on India’s stance regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Tharoor’s change in position led the BJP to taunt the Congress by saying that Prime Minister Narendra Modi now needs new haters. The remark came after Tharoor, who initially criticized India’s neutral stance on the conflict, later expressed support for the government’s position. Tharoor’s shift in stance was seen as a significant development within the Congress party and was seized upon by the BJP to mock their political rivals. The BJP’s response underscores the ongoing political tensions between the two major parties in India over foreign policy issues. The incident highlights the complexities of India’s diplomatic relationships and the challenges faced by political parties in navigating these intricate international dynamics. Tharoor’s reversal on the Russia-Ukraine issue has reignited debates within the Indian political landscape and raised questions about the Congress party’s internal cohesion and strategic messaging. As the BJP seizes upon this opportunity to score political points, the episode serves as a reminder of the ever-evolving nature of India’s foreign policy and the ways in which political actors seek to leverage international events for domestic political gain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
