Congress attacks Modi as ‘weak PM’ after Trump’s H-1B visa order

New Delhi, Sep 20: After the US imposed USD 100,000 annual fee for H-1B visas for highly skilled workers, the Congress on Saturday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, terming him a "weak" PM whose preference for "strategic silence" and "loud optics" has become a liability.

In a post on X, Congress deputy leader in the Lok Sabha Gaurav Gogoi said, "With the recent decision on H1-B visas the American government has hit at the future of the best and brightest minds from India.

I still remember the boldness of former PM Manmohan Singh when one IFS lady diplomat was insulted in the US.”
