NEW DELHI: BJP MP Nishikant Dubey on Monday launched a sharp attack on the Congress, targeting former Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru over his handling of the 1962 Indo-China war . Referring to Nehru’s appeals during the conflict, Dubey said, “Nehru kept pleading for help.”
The remark came in response to the Congress party ’s criticism of external affairs minister S Jaishankar for “informing” Pakistan about Operation Sindoor .
In retaliation, Dubey took to X to highlight what he called the flawed foreign policy of previous Congress governments, especially under Nehru.
Dubey posted a letter written by Nehru to then US President John F Kennedy , calling it “the second letter written by Iron Lady’s father Nehru ji to the American President during the China war. He kept pleading for help.”
Sarcastically attacking Nehru’s diplomatic approach, Dubey added, “Pakistan is a brother, a friend, a good neighbour, we will reach an agreement with them, everything was written. But carefully read the excellent foreign policy of the great Nehru ji.”
According to Dubey, the US passed Nehru’s letter to then Pakistani military ruler Ayub Khan . “America sent this letter to Pakistan's military ruler Ayub Khan. After seeing this letter, did we give Pakistan a chance to attack India in 1965 or not? What can be said about the person who tells the country’s weaknesses to foreigners, especially Pakistan?”
Earlier in the day, Dubey also responded to Congress leader Pawan Khera’s post on X by digging further into history.
He referenced another letter, Nehru’s 1945 communication to British Prime Minister Clement Attlee regarding Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose .
