"The discussion about Pok, which our respected Prime Minister is conducting, has been going on for 75 years. Modi ji has a 56-inch chest; he does not talk about it. He talks about bringing the enemy to his knees, but what President Trump has done is very disrespectful to our sovereignty and to India. You will talk about trade with Donald Trump, and you will speak about PoK with Pakistan. But for that, you must ask Trump if he permits you, and only then will you talk. It has almost been proven that Trump is running this country. Businessmen rule this country, but international businessmen control the businessmen from here. Where has your patriotism gone?" he told reporters.

CPI leaderD Raja said, " India as a nation stands united in the fight against terrorism...but PM should have answered certain pertinent questions...how the Pahalgam terror attack took place? What were lapses on our part?... How was understanding reached between India and Pakistan, and what role did America play?...what is the truth? What's next, nobody knows...our party has been demanding a special session of Parliament, let PM explain govt's position..."
