PM Modi Visits Israel Amid Opposition Criticism Over Palestinian Issue

Prime Minister Narendra Modi began a two-day visit to Israel aimed at strengthening bilateral ties in defense, trade, and technology. The visit, Modi's second in nine years, has drawn criticism from the Indian opposition, particularly Congress leaders Jairam Ramesh and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. They accused the government of abandoning the Palestinian cause amid ongoing violence in Gaza and the West Bank, urging Modi to address concerns about civilian casualties and judicial independence in Israel. Modi emphasized the strategic partnership and cooperation between India and Israel during his visit.
