Israel Hamas War / Why did Priyanka Gandhi get angry when India did not vote for peace in Gaza?

Israel Hamas War: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi has once become angry at the central government. On India's stand in the United Nations General Assembly, he said that he was surprised. India has abstained from voting on implementing ceasefire in Gaza. He emphasized that India was founded on the principles of non-violence and truth, and these principles were upheld by our freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives for the freedom of our country.

The Congress leader believes that these fundamental principles are enshrined in our Constitution and define our nationality. They also serve as a moral compass that has guided India's actions as a responsible member of the international community. Priyanka quoted Mahatma Gandhi as saying, “An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.” Priyanka Gandhi emphasized that remaining silent and inactive despite violations of every law of humanity is against the very essence of our nation.

Why did Priyanka Gandhi get angry?

The Congress leader believes that abstinence from voting contradicts the principles of non-violence, justice and peace that India has historically advocated.

गाजा में 7000 मनुष्यों की हत्या के बाद भी रक्तपात और हिंसा का दौर थमा नहीं। इन 7000 लोगों में से 3000 मासूम बच्चे थे।

कोई ऐसा अंतरराष्ट्रीय कानून नहीं, जिसे कुचला न गया हो। कोई ऐसी मर्यादा नहीं, जिसे तार-तार न किया गया हो। कोई ऐसा क़ायदा नहीं, जिसकी धज्जियाँ न उड़ी हों।…

Priyanka Gandhi expressed grief over the death of innocent children in Gaza

The Congress leader expressed grief over the children being killed in Israeli bombing in Gaza yesterday. In an X post yesterday, he said that seven thousand people were killed in Gaza, three thousand innocent children were killed and despite this the bloodshed is not stopping.

Some criticized the alleged trampling of international law, violating decorum and flouting rules and regulations. In fact, India distanced itself from the voting on ceasefire in Gaza in the United Nations General Assembly and this angered the Congress leaders.
