Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. Photo: PTI Real journalism holds power accountable Since 2015, The Wire has done just that. But we can continue only with your support. Contribute now New Delhi: Lok Sabha leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi, who has once again claimed that US President Donald Trump compelled Prime Minister Narendra Modi to 'surrender' during the India-Pakistan conflict, said he was only saying the same thing Trump has repeated '11 times'. 'Trump … has said 11 times that Modi stopped due to pressure from him. I am only saying what Trump is saying and has said 11 times,' Gandhi said on Friday (June 6) to mediapersons. He continued: 'Modi has not made any statement on Trump's comments. Modi should say that Trump is lying.' Earlier in the day, Gandhi claimed while addressing an event in Bihar's Rajgir that Trump had repeatedly said he made Modi surrender and that the latter was unable to say that the US president was lying because he was speaking the truth. 'You know that he has a habit of surrendering,' Gandhi said referring to the Union government's decision to enumerate castes during the next population census, something that had been a demand of opposition parties in the run-up to the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. 'Trump has said 11 times – 11 times – that 'I made Narendra Modi surrender'. He's said it 11 times, in public. Modi is not able to object to this. Modi is not able to say that Trump is lying. Because it is the truth,' the Congress MP alleged. On Tuesday, Gandhi while addressing a function in Bhopal claimed that Modi obeyed Trump's diktat to 'surrender'. 'Trump gestured from there [the US], picked up the phone and asked Modi 'what are you doing?' 'Narendra…surrender'. Aur, ji hazoor karke, Narendra Modi ji ne Trump ke ishaare ka paalan kiya. ['Saying yes sir, Modi followed Trump's instructions'],' Gandhi said. As the four-day military conflict between India and Pakistan ended on May 10, Trump was the first to announce the cessation of hostilities, claiming also that the US mediated the ceasefire between the two South Asian nations. He has since repeated this stance and also claimed to have used trade as leverage during a mediation effort: 'I said, come on, we're gonna do a lot of trade with you guys. Let's stop it. Let's stop it. If you stop it, we'll do trade. If you don't stop it, we're not gonna do any trade. 'People have never really used trade the way I used it, that I can tell you, and all of a sudden, they said, I think we're gonna stop.' Since then the US government has said in a court filing that Trump used trade access as incentive to 'avert a full-scale war' between India and Pakistan. The Modi government has denied claims that the US mediated the cessation of hostilities or that trade came up in discussions between Indian and American officials during the conflict. Modi has not personally addressed the claims. Meanwhile, the BJP has called Gandhi's mentality 'sick' and 'dangerous'. 'By making extremely cheap, low-level statements, the self-proclaimed, self-styled, supreme leader, the leader of opposition, Rahul Gandhi, is telling the world that even after becoming the LoP, he lacks seriousness and maturity that the post requires,' BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said on Wednesday. He added: 'The manner in which Rahul Gandhi compared our armed forces' valour and the briefing given by our armed forces on Operation Sindoor's success with surrender, shows how sick and dangerous his mentality has become.'

UP Congress workers, close to state chief Ajay Rai, arrested for 'harassing' woman over shop; party cries fowl

Two local Congress workers, said to be close to party's Uttar Pradesh unit chief Ajay Rai, were arrested on charges of molestation, robbery, and theft, police said on Friday. The arrest came after a woman lodged a complaint against the two and alleged she was harassed and forcibly evicted from her shop in Varanasi's Chetganj area. Local Station House Officer (SHO) Dilip Kumar Mishra said that the complainant, Chetganj resident Sachina Khatoon, had rented a shop in Hathua Market from Sanjay Singh and ran a boutique there, news agency PTI reported. Khatoon alleged that following Singh's death during the Covid-19 pandemic, two of his friends, Anand Pandey and Amit Pathak, began intimidating her and extorting money in the name of protection fees. "When she refused, they allegedly pressured her to vacate the shop and subjected her to various forms of harassment," SHO Mishra added. Khatoon reportedly claimed that she even got a stay order on the eviction from the court. Despite this order, in May last year, Pandey and Pathak planned a break-in into her shop and made off with all her belongings, she added. When she and her daughters resisted this, the two men berated and harassed them, police said as per her complaint. "Both Anand Pandey and Amit Pathak are said to be close associates of Congress state president Ajay Rai. A case of robbery, theft, and molestation has been registered against them. Both were arrested on Thursday and presented before the court, which subsequently sent them to jail," said the SHO. Meanwhile, the allegations were dismissed by Congress Metropolitan president Raghavendra Chaubey, who said that the arrests are a "premeditated conspiracy by the BJP government" to discredit their state chief Rai and the entire Congress party. Chaubey also defended the two arrested persons, describing them as "strong activists" of the Congress and instead accusing Khatoon of having filing a similar cases against "almost half a dozen individuals" in Varanasi. "This is her profession," Chaubey alleged, the news agency report mentioned.
