Prime Minister committed a blunder: Shabbir

Hyderabad: Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council Mohammed Ali Shabbir said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had committed a diplomatic blunder by not visiting Palestine during his three-day stay in Israel. The Prime Minister could have spared a few hours to visit holy icons of Islam and Christianity in Palestine and Jerusalem.
In a press note here on Friday, Shabbir Ali said India got no advantage by his visit to Israel and put future of lakhs of Indian workers in the Gulf in jeopardy by displaying ‘indifferent attitude’ towards Palestine. The Prime Minister put India’s foreign policy towards Muslims nations in jeopardy by his tour of Israel and not visiting Palestine during the first visit by an Indian Prime Minister to Israel.
He said the Prime Minister, who spent three days in Israel strolling on the beaches and visiting museums, could have also spent a few hours visiting the Grand Mosque of Palestine and the holy icons of Christianity in Jerusalem. “If the Prime Minister had displayed statesmanship, it would have gone a long way in instilling confidence in all minorities in India and abroad on the concept of secularism, which was a core element of the Indian democracy,” he added.
A short visit by the Prime Minister to any of the Arab countries or at least Palestine would have cemented lasting good will and brotherhood and elevated the pride of all Indians working there, he said,
adding that the Prime Minister’s visit to Israel sent wrong signals to the friendly middle east countries and it was essential for both the Prime Minister’s Office and the Ministry of External Affairs to make timely announcement on how and why the Prime Minister’s itinerary missed Palestine - even for a few hours - and set right the diplomatic blunder.
