BJP’s Bhandari Defends India’s UNGA Vote on Gaza, Criticizes Congress’s ‘Half-Truths’

BJP’s Pradeep Bhandari has defended India’s abstention in the UNGA vote concerning a ceasefire in Gaza, countering criticism from the Congress party. Bhandari accused the Congress of disseminating “half-truths” and insisted that India’s abstention was consistent with its past voting record. He emphasized India’s official stance, which condemns the loss of civilian lives, supports humanitarian aid, and backs a two-state solution. Bhandari’s response was a direct rebuttal of comments by Congress leader Pawan Khera, who had criticized India’s abstention.
