Jairam Ramesh accuses centre of "calibrated capitulation" to China over power project decision

New Delhi: Congress MP Jairam Ramesh on Friday accused the Centre of continuing what he termed a "calibrated capitulation" to China after reports that four Chinese-linked power equipment firms had been allowed to bid for certain government power projects.

In a post on X, Ramesh criticised the government's reported decision, alleging that it came despite ongoing border tensions, trade imbalances and security concerns involving China.

"The Modi Govt's calibrated capitulation to China continues even as India's trade deficit with that country reaches record levels, destroying large sections of our industry specially MSMEs," Ramesh said.

He further alleged that China's actions concerning Arunachal Pradesh, the Brahmaputra River, and Eastern Ladakh continued unabated.
