Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Saturday criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the India-US trade framework. His remarks came after US President Donald Trump announced a 10% global tariff following a Supreme Court setback. In a post on X, Gandhi wrote, “The PM is compromised. His betrayal now stands exposed. He can’t renegotiate. He will surrender again.” Gandhi has repeatedly questioned the interim trade deal. During the Budget session, he accused the government of “full surrender” to the US. He also raised concerns over tariffs, data sharing and energy imports. The Centre has not responded to his latest remarks. (PC: The Indian Express)
