Tough Talk: Sharad Pawar Slams India’s Abstention In UN On Gaza ; Says Modi Government In Total Confusion On Palestine Issue
Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar has said there was “total confusion” in the approach of the Narendra Modi government to the Palestine issue amid the Israel-Hamas war, his comment coming after India abstained in the United Nations General Assembly on a resolution calling for immediate humanitarian truce.
Several thousand people have been killed in Gaza in a massive counter-offensive by Israel following deadly raids on October 7 by Hamas.
Replying to a question in a news conference, Pawar said India never supported the way Gaza is being attacked, hospitals were being bombed, resulting in the death of thousands.
