On Day 2 of BRICS Summit, PM Modi warns against ‘weaponisation’ of critical minerals
The Congress party has questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi's handling of India-China relations following his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh asked four pointed questions about the PM's approach. Ramesh accused Modi of engaging in "calibrated capitulation" to China, querying why he allowed China's territorial advances in Ladakh and Arunachal Pradesh.
He also criticized the trade deficit with China, which hit a record $112.6 billion in 2025-26, and the softening of India's position on China's support for Pakistan during Operation Sindoor. The Congress party sees Modi's actions as a significant weakening of India's negotiating position.
