Mumbai: Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Thursday strongly criticised Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, accusing him of indulging in politics by tarnishing India’s image abroad. Speaking to reporters in Mumbai, Shinde said the Central government is closely monitoring the global situation amid rising tensions involving Iran, Israel and the United States to ensure that there is no shortage of gas or fuel in the country. He said both the Centre and the state government are working in coordination to prevent any inconvenience to citizens and appealed to people not to believe rumours.Shinde said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is keeping a close watch on every development and taking necessary steps to safeguard the interests of the country and its citizens.
Targeting Rahul Gandhi, Shinde alleged that the Congress leader often travels abroad when Parliament is in session instead of participating in discussions in the House. He claimed that Gandhi frequently makes statements overseas that damage India’s reputation.

Shinde further alleged that while the country carries out operations like “Operation Sindoor” and the armed forces demonstrate their bravery, Rahul Gandhi neither expresses pride nor acknowledges their efforts. Instead, he said, Gandhi’s statements provide headlines for countries like Pakistan.
