Gandhi has been critical of the government on the issue of the border dispute with China and has accused it of mishandling the situation.
Congress President Sonia Gandhi had also issued statement on the anniversary of Galwan clash in which 20 Indian soldiers had been killed as well as unknown number of Chinese soldiers.
