New Delhi: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma took a jibe at the Nationalist Congress Party chief on Wednesday, saying it seems like he will send his daughter Supriya Sule to Gaza to fight for the militant group. The remark was made in connection with Pawar’s comments over the Israel-Hamas war.
“I think Sharad Pawar will send Supriya (Sule) madam to Gaza to fight for Hamas,” Sarma said to news agency ANI when asked to comment on Pawar’s take on the ongoing war.
The NCP chief criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for showing solidarity with Israel, saying that it’s unfortunate that the PM neglected the real issue as former prime ministers of India also “stood firmly with Palestine”.
“The entire land is of Palestine and Israel encroached on their land. That place, land and houses, everything was of Palestine and later Israel took over it. Israel is an outsider and the land is originally of Palestine,” Pawar had said while addressing a gathering of party workers in Mumbai.
Union minister Piyush Goyal, expressing his dismay at Pawar’s remarks, emphasised the need to condemn terrorism worldwide. Goyal pointed out that Pawar had held prominent positions in the government during critical security incidents.
