New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over ‘failure’ of his foreign policy after China and other countries opposed India's application to join the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG).
Kejriwal said that the Prime Minister owes an explanation on what he did during his "jaunts" abroad as he has "completely failed" on the foreign policy front.
"PM Modi has completely failed on the foreign policy front. He owes an explanation on what he did on his foreign jaunts?" Kejriwal said on Twitter.
On reports claiming that Switzerland opposed India's bid to be an NSG member, the AAP leader suggested that the development is indicative of PM Modi's visit to the country not bearing fruit.
Swiss President Johann Schneider-Ammann had on June 6 announced his country's backing to India's membership to the group after holding talks with Prime Minister Modi. But at the Seoul meet, Switzerland joined China in opposing India’s entry to the exclusive club.
"Why? Didn't the PM visit Switzerland just a few days ago?" Kejriwal questioned.
The plenary meeting of the 48-member NSG ended in Seoul today with no decision on India's membership bid as divisions persisted over admitting non-NPT members with China leading the opposition to it.
