Communist Party of India (Marxist) leader and Rajya Sabha MP P. Sandosh Kumar launched a sharp attack on the Narendra Modi-led government, accusing it of failing to respond adequately to repeated provocations by US President Donald Trump, who he said continues to "belittle" India, reported ANI.

During an interaction with ANI, Kumar alleged that India is consistently being insulted by the Trump administration, and criticised the Indian leadership, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, for not taking a firm stand in response.

"I feel that Trump's second term means belittling India all the time. Our country's leadership - from the Prime Minister to his ministers - has no person with the capacity. We should retaliate and give an answer. The country's Prime Minister has the fourth-largest following on 'X'. After what happened in Pahalgam, there was an India-Pakistan war situation. After that, Trump said something. He has not yet responded. The world feels this, other countries feel this, that our leadership is very weak," the CPI(M) MP said, reported ANI.
