NEW DELHI - Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has challenged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to an open debate, alleging that the prime minister's position depends on foreign assistance.
Gandhi made the challenge via social media, stating that Modi became prime minister because of foreign help and remains in power due to foreign support. He claimed the financial system is fully controlled and supported by foreigners, with foreign social media platforms fully backing the prime minister.
The challenge came in a post that included the message 'Mr Modi, stop lying to this nation' and an invitation for Modi to debate any topic regarding these allegations.
As of the latest available information, Prime Minister Modi has not publicly responded to the debate challenge. The exchange was reported by local outlet Deccan Herald and reflects the contentious nature of Indian politics ahead of upcoming elections.
The allegations highlight the sharp rhetoric being employed by opposition leaders against the ruling government, with Gandhi framing the debate as a test of accountability and transparency in governance.
