When asked about U.S. President Donald Trump’s claim that his strong suggestion led to a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, Kharge said such confidential matters should be discussed in Parliament or an All-Party Meeting.
All the opposition parties have supported the steps taken by the union government, the union government should also reciprocate it by taking into confidence the opposition parties, Kharge said.
