The Congress has hit out at Narendra Modi government for being "indifferent towards Chinese incursions" and mocked it for forgetting its earlier bravado over the issue.
"What has surprised and shocked the nation is the meek response of the Modi government. This is the same Narendra Modi whose spin doctors said that he would show 'Red Eyes' to China, and they would go running back.
"The only 'red' we have seen is the aggression of China. In the face of these provocative statements, all that the Home Minister Rajnath Singh had to say was, "Chinese intrusions are only perception". Perception? Tell that to our brave Jawans who had to resist Chinese aggression," said an article on the party website.
It also said: "In the past the three years, Modi Government's foreign policy has been defined more by the Prime Minister's search for holiday destinations and photo opportunities rather than actually serving India's interests."
