CM accuses Modi of ‘surrendering’ to U.S.

Accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of “meekly surrendering to the U.S.”, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday demanded that the Prime Minister step down for the good of the nation.

“Mr. Narendra Modi has demonstrated again and again that he is incompetent and incapable of defending and upholding India’s sovereignty and dignity,” the Chief Minister said in a social media post.

“It is deeply humiliating that the United States is now openly saying it will ‘allow’ India to buy Russian oil for 30 days. No foreign government should ever be in a position to grant or deny India permission to run its economy. Yet this is the situation India finds itself under Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” he said.

“Donald Trump speaks like the acting Prime Minister of India, while Narendra Modi appears being reduced to a puppet who merely follows instructions. A Prime Minister of a sovereign republic cannot allow such a situation to arise.” he maintained.

“This pattern is now impossible to ignore. Trump repeatedly claims credit for the Operation Sindoor ceasefire, yet we have heard no strong rebuttal from PM Modi. The United States tells India not to buy Iranian oil, and the Modi Government complies. Pressure is applied on Russian oil imports — India reduces them. Now the United States announces that Indian refineries are ‘allowed’ to buy Russian oil for only 30 days,” he said.

“Ironically, while RSS-BJP leaders keep demanding that the words secular and socialist be removed from the Constitution, under their rule it is ‘sovereignty’ itself that appears to have been removed in practice,” he maintained.

“India must speak with its own voice in the world. At a time when the world is torn by war and bloodshed, India must show moral leadership and independent thinking, guided by our own history,” he argued.
