The tweet was also a dig at Home Minister Amit Shah, who had earlier explained the “chronology” of how CAA and NRC will be implemented in the country.
Rahul Gandhi, who’s abroad for a medical checkup of his mother, has continued his attack on the government through his social media. Gandhi, who’s not present for the 18-day monsoon session of the parliament, said: “Aap chronology samajhiye (Please understand the chronology) alleging that days before PM Modi said China had not crossed into Indian territory, the government “took a huge loan from a China-based bank”.
The tweet was also a dig at Home Minister Amit Shah, who had earlier explained the “chronology” of how CAA and NRC will be implemented in the country.
“Aap chronology samajhiye (Please understand the chronology). PM said no one entered the border… Then took a huge loan from China-based bank… Then defence minister said China had encroached … Now Minister of State for Home said no encroachment,” Rahul Gandhi tweeted.
“Is Modi government with Indian Army or China? Modiji, why so scared?” the Congress leader asked.
Understand the chronology:
PM said- no one crossed the border
Then, took a huge loan from a China-based bank
Then, Def Min said- China occupied our land
Now, MOS Home says- there’s no infiltration.Is Modi Govt with Indian Army or with China?
Modi ji, why so scared?
