The Congress on Saturday attacked the Centre for abstaining from voting during the UNGA resolution for a ceasefire in Gaza and alleged that India’s foreign policy is in shambles.

The party also demanded answers from the government on whether India has abandoned its principled stand against war, against genocide, and for justice.

“It is shameful and disappointing that our government has chosen to abstain on the UN motion for the protection of civilians and upholding legal and humanitarian obligations in Gaza,” said Congress MP from Wayanad, Priyanka Gandhi, “This is a tragic reversal of our anti-colonial legacy. “
