“India’s policy on Palestine has become deeply regrettable. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh also underscored that countries such as Australia, Canada, and the UK have recently recognized Palestine, with more expected to follow. He recalled that India officially recognized Palestine on November 18, 1988, but argued that the government’s current approach represents “shameful moral cowardice.”Last month, the Congress had also condemned the Modi government for remaining silent on what it called Israel’s “unacceptable actions” in Gaza. Priyanka Gandhi had earlier accused Israel of genocide and criticized the Indian government for its muted response. In recent days, renowned Indian actor Prakash Raj also blamed Israel, the United States, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the ongoing genocide in Palestine.
