NEW DELHI: Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday termed the release of LeT chief Hafiz Saeed a “hugplomacy failure” of PM Narendra Modi.

“Narendrabhai, baat nahin bani (Narendrabhai, it did not work). Terror mastermind is free. President Trump just delinked Pak military funding from LeT. Hugplomacy fail,” Rahul Gandhi said in a tweet on Saturday.

The Congress leader signed off the tweet with “more hugs urgently needed”.

Rahul Gandhi’s tweet came a day after the mastermind of 26/11 attack, Hafiz Saeed, was released from house arrest after Pakistan government decided against detaining him further in any other case.

In October too, Rahul had targeted PM Modi over failure of his hug diplomacy.
