Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has gone after the central government through a post on the social media platform X. He voiced strong anger over the deaths of three Indian sailors in US strikes and the way the United States conducted itself afterwards.
What Rahul Gandhi Wrote
In his post, Rahul Gandhi pointed out that even just a few days after three Indian sailors were killed in the US strikes, there had been no expression of regret and no apology from the American side. According to him, far from it, the United States had instead carried on issuing orders.
Questions Over Washington's Stance
Rahul Gandhi drew attention to the language being used by the United States. He cited the words that demanded "American military orders be obeyed at once," along with the warning that any violation "will not be tolerated."
In this context, Rahul Gandhi raised a pointed question, arguing that a free nation never accepts language of this kind. His remark was a direct dig at the idea that dealing with an independent country like India in such a commanding tone is unacceptable.
Public Reaction
As soon as the post appeared, it drew mixed reactions on social media. Some users backed Rahul Gandhi's stand and questioned the government's silence, while others made sharp comments about what they saw as weak leadership and called for accountability.
