Advantage over Pak lost due to Modi’s ‘flip-flop': Congress

Congress on Friday alleged that “flip-flop” policy of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has helped Pakistan reposition itself to “pivot” position from being a “pariah” in the global system and destroyed India’s strategic and diplomatic “advantages” over the neighbour.

At the same time, the party said it was ready to offer support to the ruling dispensation as a responsible opposition to effect a course correction in the Pakistan policy.

“In the last two years, Pakistan has been able to reposition itself from being a pariah in the global system to now again being seen as a pivot for regional stability. The 4-nation talks on Afghanistan, the sale of F-16s are signs of how we have allowed the Pakistanis to reemerge within the global order,” party’s chief spokesman Randeep Surjewala told reporters.
