Weak Modi is scared of Xi: Rahul's dig at PM over Azhar issue


New Delhi, Mar 14 (PTI): As China again blocked a UN resolution to designate JeM chief a global terrorist, Congress president Rahul Gandhi Thursday hit out at Prime Minster Narendra Modi, saying he was weak and scared of Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The Congress chief attacked the prime minister and said he had not spoken on China blocking the resolution in the UN Security Council. The party accused the BJP of letting Masood off the hook again and also questioned Modi what was the use of "swinging" with Xi. "Weak Modi is scared of Xi. Not a word comes out of his mouth when China acts against India. NoMo's China diplomacy: 1. Swing with Xi in Gujarat. 2. Hug Xi in Delhi. 3. Bow to Xi in China," Gandhi said on Twitter.

India's bid to designate the Pakistan-based terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed's chief as a global terrorist suffered a setback with China on Wednesday putting a technical hold on a proposal to ban him following the Pulwama terror attack.

The proposal to designate Azhar under the 1267 Al Qaeda Sanctions Committee of the UNSC was moved by France, the UK and the US on February 27, days after a suicide bomber of the JeM killed 44 CRPF soldiers in Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama, leading to a flare-up in tensions between India and Pakistan.

"With China having blocked our bid to designate Masood Azhar a global terrorist, the question on every Indian's mind is, what was the use of all the swinging with Modi and President Xi," the Congress said on its official Twitter handle.

"A terrorist responsible for such bloody murders is let off the hook again by the BJP," it claimed. Congress' chief spokeserson Randeep Surjewala said it was a sad day in the global fight against terrorism.

"China blocking Masood Azhar's designation as global terrorist reaffirms Chinese position of being an inseparable ally of terrorism's breeding ground-Pakistan," he tweeted Wednesday.

"Sadly, Modiji's foreign policy has been a series of diplomatic disasters," the party spokesperson said. The Congress has also been attacking the BJP over Azhar's release in the Kandahar hijacking case. Gandhi has asked Modi to tell the nation that it was a BJP-led government which released Azhar from an Indian jail in 1999.

Gandhi has also alleged that National Security Adviser Ajit Doval, a top intelligence official back then, had "escorted" Azhar to Kandahar where he was handed over to terrorists. Azhar and two other terrorists, Mushtaq Ahmed Zargar and Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, were released from Indian prison in 1999 by the then BJP-led government headed by Atal Bihari Vajpayee in exchange for the passengers held hostage on board IC-814 flight hijacked to Kandahar in Afghanistan.

    2017 trade:

    Indian exports to China: $16.3 billion
    Chinese exports to India: $68.1 billion

    So there is every chance for India to hit back at China,

    But the Gujju-bhai won't do such a thing. Why?

    Whether imports or exports, it is the Gujjus handling over 80% of that trade on the Indian side.

    If India hits back at China, all the Gujjus handling the trade will run away to Antigua, and the Gujju state will be bankrupt overnight.

    12. Rafale deal is another loot. India is buying an aircraft from France for 1526 Crores. He Ignored HAL and made Anil Ambani's brand new company a partner in this deal. Funny twist, Qatar and Egypt get the same aircraft for 700 crores...Mother of all scams!!!

    14. As per RBI loans worth 2.4 Lakhs, Crore was waived for the corporate sector when farmers are committing suicide because they can't afford loan repayment.

    FAILURE OF THE COW GOVT'S CATTLE CLASS GOVERNANCE.

    1. Elevating the fuel prices without any justification when the crude oil price is low in the Int’l Market. Price of fuel maintained high by imposing high tax rate is a classic example of burdening the general public.

    2. LPG price crossed over the 800 Rs mark ... It is double the price of 2014.

    3. The nose dive of Indian Rupee... which is holding the record of the most devalued currency in Asia.

    4. Railway fare has been drastically increased. The minimum charge has gone from Rs.5 to Rs.10. It is the first time in the history the rail charges have increased at this pace.

    5. GOVT., is misusing all institutions Judiciary, CBI, ED, DRI, I.Tax, SIT, Election commissioners to target its opponents and creating fear atmosphere everywhere which does't augur well for the democracy.

    5. Goods transportation fare in the Indian railway has gone up by 10%.

    6. Widespread polarisation on a communal basis as never seen or heard before

    7. "Organised loot and legalised plunder" through a flawed experiment called demonetisation. The government expected that 30% of the notes will not come back to the banks, but eventually, 99.37% came back. The rest is with The Royal bank of Nepal, Royal Bank of Bhutan and the cooperative banking sector. This stupid experiment took the lives of more than 105 people in our country and no compensations were paid.

    8. "Give me 50 days and if Demonetisation is proved wrong I will gladly accept whatever punishment the public want to give", These were the words of India’s Chaaiwala P.M., during the days following the Demonetisation stunt. Now he does not utter a word about this.

    9. 2% drop in the GDP amounting to the loss of 3 lakh crores to the nation.

    10. "Black money which is stacked outside will be brought back within 100 days", Modi said. But no action has been taken on that till now and even the 673 names given by HSBC is not disclosed... who is the government of India keen to protect

    Modi is the biggest failure India has seen in the last 5 years. All other failures are smaller and can be corrected. Modi has failed on every front including security front.

    The country needs a very strong PM not necessarily with a 56-inch chest. The chest could be smaller but the new PM should have strong will power and fortitude.
