Prime Minister Narendra Modi lashed out at the Congress party on Sunday, accusing it of compromising India’s sovereignty by ceding the disputed Katchatheevu island to Sri Lanka in 1974.
His remarks came in response to revelations from a recent Right To Information (RTI) application, which exposed the Congress-led government’s decision under then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi to hand over the strategic island to Sri Lanka.
"Eye opening and startling! New facts reveal how Congress callously gave away Katchatheevu. This has angered every Indian and reaffirmed in people's minds- we can't ever trust Congress," he said on X, sharing the report.
Modi said, "Weakening India's unity, integrity and interests has been Congress' way of working for 75 years and counting."
