New Delhi : PM Narendra Modi criticised the Indian National Congress and Left parties over their statements about the tension in West Asia. While speaking at a rally, he said some opposition leaders are spreading wrong information and creating fear among people in India.
Modi said many Indians work in Gulf countries, so it is normal for families in India to feel worried about the situation. He added that the central government is keeping a close watch on the developments and is ready to help Indian citizens if needed.
PM Modi also said that some political parties are trying to use the global crisis for political benefit. According to him, making such comments during a sensitive time can create unnecessary panic among people.
He also mentioned that governments of friendly Gulf countries are supporting Indian workers and ensuring their safety. India is in regular contact with those countries to protect the interests of Indian citizens.
