On Middle East Crisis And LPG, 2 Top Congress Leaders Ditch Party Line

-
https://ift.tt/5QrX2wb Two more Congress leaders have come out in support of the NDA government's handling of the war in the Middle-East, deviating sharply from the party stand. While former Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Kamal Nath, flatly said there is no LPG crisis, Anand Sharma, the foreign minister in the erstwhile UPA government, applauded India's "diplomatic handling of the crisis" in a series of posts on X, formerly Twitter. In what could amplify any trouble within the party, he added, "National unity and a mature response guided by national interest is the need of the hour".
