Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Thursday targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the reported abduction of a 17-year-old boy from Arunachal Pradesh, Miram Taron, by Chinese troops and claimed that Mr Modi’s “silence” shows that he does not care.
In a tweet, Mr. Gandhi said, “A few days before the Republic Day, an Indian has been kidnapped by China. We are with the family of Miram Taron and will not lose hope, will not give up. PM’s cowardly silence is his statement — he does not care.”
