File | Photo Credit: ANI The Congress on Thursday (April 23, 2026) accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of demonstrating “moral cowardice” by his “total silence” on the “continued genocide” by Israel in Gaza and its heavy bombing of Lebanon, and said no government has shown so much solidarity with the “murderous Israeli regime” as his dispensation has. Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh also alleged that the Modi government has betrayed all human values, apart from traditional Indian principles and positions. “The Prime Minister has been demonstrating moral cowardice by his total silence on the continued genocide by Israel in Gaza and its heavy bombing of Lebanon. He has also kept completely quiet on the dispossession and displacement of lakhs of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank,” Mr. Ramesh said on X.
