"Afraid PM Might Inaugurate This": Rahul Gandhi On China's Illegal Bridge
NDTV
The construction of the bridge across the Pangong gives Chinese forces the ability to quickly mobilise soldiers to either bank of the Lake.
Rahul Gandhi, for the second day in a row, took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, this time over reports of China constructing a bridge on the Pangong Tso Lake in Ladakh near the Line of Actual Control (LAC). हमारे देश में चीन एक कूटनीतिक पुल का निर्माण कर रहा है।PM की चुप्पी से PLA के हौसले बढ़ते जा रहे हैं।अब तो ये डर है कहीं PM इस पुल का भी उद्घाटन करने ना पहुँच जायें। pic.twitter.com/OMcCC3wxXD
The former Congress chief had questioned the Prime Minister's silence on the same on January 4 as well. This time he tagged a picture with arrows showing the alleged Chinese bridge on Pangong Tso Lake, which is extremely close to the LAC.
"China is building a illegal bridge in our country. The PLA's spirits are increasing due to the silence of the PM. Now it is a fear that PM may not reach to inaugurate this bridge too," said the 51-year-old leader throwing shade at the Prime Minister.
