Chinese have taken Indian land, PM is lying, says Rahul Gandhi
Speaking on his recent Ladakh visit, Rahul Gandhi said, "I spent a week in Ladakh. I went to Pangong Lake right in front of where the Chinese are. I had detailed discussions, probably the most detailed discussion that any politician outside Ladakh has had with the people of Ladakh. They categorically told me that the Chinese have taken Indian land. They categorically told me that the PM is lying about the fact that the Chinese have not taken Indian land."
"Every single person in Ladakh knows that the people of India and the people of Ladakh have been betrayed by the Government of India. There is clearly an accommodation that has happened between the Government and the Chinese. There is clearly a change on the borders. Our shepherds themselves told us that they are not being allowed into the areas where they were allowed... It is extremely shameful what has happened in Ladakh," Rahul Gandhi said.
