Congress Criticizes India's Foreign Policy, Cites Saudi Visa Ban
A Congress leader, Pawan Khera, is saying India's relationships with other countries aren't going well under the current government.
He pointed to Saudi Arabia's decision to stop issuing work visas to people from India, among others, as an example.
He claims India's influence in the world is getting weaker.
Khera also mentioned that some countries seem to be backing India's rivals.
This is part of an argument by Congress that India's foreign policy is not effective.
Congress leader Pawan Khera criticized India's foreign policy.
Khera cited Saudi Arabia's visa suspension for 14 countries, including India, as evidence of decline.
Khera stated that India is 'loud at home but lonely abroad'.
Khera listed several events to highlight what he calls India's dwindling global influence.
The visa ban is expected to last until the end of June, although there is no set end date.
