PM address to nation| Will the Prime Minister respond to these claims and speak on the continuously deteriorating India-US relations: Jairam Ramesh
Jairam Ramesh took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, "The Prime Minister is preparing to address the nation, while in Washington DC, his good friend has once again stolen his headlines by claiming for the 42nd time that he stopped Operation Sindoor by taking advantage of the growing trade with America. President Trump has made this claim not only in America but also in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Britain.
"Will the Prime Minister respond to these claims and speak on the continuously deteriorating India-US relations? Will they address the concerns of millions of Indian H1B holders? Will they give some assurance to those millions of farmers and workers whose livelihoods are at risk due to the tariffs imposed by their friend? Or will they just repeat the same thing we all know about the new GST rates - which were prepared in desperation and are coming into effect from tomorrow."
