Congress attacks government

The Congress said that the minister did not solve the concerns of the country. Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh claimed that the trust that Prime Minister Modi had tried with Trump turned out to be completely hollow.
Jairam Ramesh said, today the Commerce Minister did not make any statement on the issue of Trump and American tariffs in Parliament. There was no discussion on issues such as not being able to have a trade deal with the US, the US imposing 25 percent tariffs and imposing additional penalty for trade with Russia and Iran. There was no solution to the concerns of the country.
