Piyush Goyal Criticizes Sharad Pawar’s ‘India With Palestine’ Remark, Calls For A Change In Mindset

In between the Israel-Hamas conflict, Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar stated that India has always stood for the benefit of Palestine. Pawar mentioned that India’s former Prime Ministers were also firmly in support of Palestine. Following his remarks, Union Minister Piyush Goyal criticized Sharad Pawar, stating that it’s quite distressing when a senior leader makes such statements.

Pawar was part of the same government

Goyal went on to say that Pawar was part of the same government that shed tears during the Batla House encounter and remained passive during terrorist attacks on Indian soil. He emphasized the need to change this mindset and expressed hope that Pawar would now prioritize the nation.

Pawar’s statement highlighted the ongoing conflict

Pawar’s statement highlighted the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, where he asserted that the entire land belongs to Palestine and that Israel has encroached upon their territory. He claimed that the Israelis are outsiders, and the land originally belonged to Palestine after the encroachment led to the formation of Israel.

He Added

He also mentioned that the views of Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, and Atal Bihari Vajpayee were all similar regarding the Israel-Palestine issue. India’s stance had always been in support of the people who originally owned the land. India has never aligned with anyone else and has consistently stood with those who had legitimate ownership.
