When asked what the need was for Rahul Gandhi to make a political point on something which affects all parties, all Indians, Charan Singh Sapra, spokesperson for the Congress, said: "What Rahul Ji meant to say is that why does the Narendra Modi government not want to have an elaborate discussion in the Parliament. What are they trying to hide? There are so many things which need to be discussed." He went on to say that India needs a different policy towards China as there is an escalation from the Chinese side.
