The Congress on Friday (May 1, 2026) criticised Union Home Minister Amit Shah for remaining “silent” on key political demands of the people of Ladakh during his ongoing visit, even as he participated in events linked to the display of sacred Buddhist relics.
In a post on social media, Congress general secretary (communications) Jairam Ramesh said the Home Minister appeared to be “basking in the glory of the Piprahwa relics” while sidestepping pressing issues such as statehood.
