The Congress on Monday questioned the Narendra Modi government’s decision to purchase Russian crude oil, using the Chinese currency Yuan.
Addressing a press conference at Congress headquarters, party spokesperson Gaurav Vallabh said that the government of India had started making payments to Russia for import of crude in Yuan instead of rupee.
Expressing shock, he said the Indian government was promoting the currency of a country that was responsible for the martyrdom of 20 soldiers in Galwan in May 2020 and another 20 soldiers were injured in Arunachal Pradesh in December last year.
