The Modi government has finalized an all-party delegation set to visit key partner countries, aiming to highlight India’s ongoing fight against terrorism and the success of Operation Sindoor. Among the notable names included is senior Indian National Congress leader Shashi Tharoor. However, the Congress party has expressed dissatisfaction with how the delegation was constituted. Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh stated, “If the inclusion of Congress MPs was important, there should have been a discussion with our party leadership. They could have asked us to suggest the names. In our country, political parties are the backbone of democracy. Parties form the government; the government does not form parties. We follow a party system, and this process has cast a shadow over it. What kind of politics is this? Will the government decide which of our MPs will be part of such delegations?” Ramesh clarified that the issue is not with the individuals selected. “I have no objections to the names chosen — they are close friends, experienced, and have been working on foreign and defence policy for years. But the process followed is flawed. It’s a questionable approach and should not have been adopted.”
