NEW DELHI: The Congress-headed UPA government did not take any strong action against Pakistan after the 2008 Mumbai terror strike as it had "succumbed to the US pressure ", the BJP said Saturday, targeting the party over the recent remarks of its leaders P Chidambaram and Manish Tewari.
BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia asked the Congress brass to clarify why the Manmohan Singh government had allowed foreign "interference" in India's internal matters.
He demanded that Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi come clean on the recent "revelations". Chidambaram had said in an interview the entire world had descended on Delhi to stop it from taking any retaliatory action, adding the then US secretary of state had asked him and then PM "not to react".
