The India — Indian National Congress launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of 'stone-cold silence' on Israel's actions, which they termed 'unconscionable'.

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh condemned Israel's military operations in Gaza, West Bank, Iran, and Lebanon, and criticized Modi's silence as a betrayal of India's values.
