Rahul Gandhi Sparks Controversy with 'Unreleased' Memoir Claim on India-China Conflict

Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi has stirred a fresh controversy by referencing an 'unreleased' memoir allegedly written by former Army Chief MM Naravane. Gandhi claims the memoir reveals that Prime Minister Narendra Modi evaded responsibility during the 2020 India-China conflict.

Addressing media at the Parliament House complex, Gandhi displayed the memoir, asserting that it exposes a significant lapse in leadership at a critical national security moment. He alleged that during the conflict, orders from the top were ambiguous, with Modi suggesting military leadership take independent action, yet failing to provide decisive directives.

Gandhi's allegations come amidst a heated session in the Lok Sabha, where he criticized the government's handling of the situation and noted the suspension of several MPs over disruptive behavior. He has voiced a strong protest against being barred from quoting the memoir in Parliament, a move he considers detrimental to democratic discourse.
