Congress leader Rahul Gandhi stated on Thursday that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘lack of vision’ for the country has allowed China to attack India. He said that PM is focused on building his own image which is not a substitute for a national vision. In yet another video shared on Twitter, Rahul Gandhi asserted that India needs vision to take on China which has been causing tensions on the border. He said the lack of vision in a country gives the enemy an opportunity to cause a disturbance.
“You need to deal with China with a position of strength. If they sense weakness, then it will be a problem. We need an international vision to take on China. India needs to have a global vision,” Rahul Gandhi said in the video.

The Congress leader added that a huge opportunity is being lost as the leaders are not thinking long-term and big. He said today Indians are fighting Indians because there no ‘clear-cut vision’.

“A huge opportunity is being lost. We are not thinking long term and we are disturbing our internal balance. We are fighting amongst each other. It is because there no clear vision. The Prime Minister’s responsibility is to give a vision to the country, and it is not there. That is why China is in there today,” Gandhi stated.
