Hyderabad, Oct 28 (PTI) AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Saturday said it is “shocking” that India abstained from the UN General Assembly resolution on the Israel-Hamas conflict and termed the abstention as “an inconsistent foreign policy” of the country.<\/p>\n
In a message posted on “X”, the Hyderabad MP said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi condemned the “Hamas attack”, but couldn’t agree to a UN resolution seeking a truce.<\/p>\n
“@narendramodi condemned the Hamas attack but couldn’t agree to a UN resolution seeking a truce. He spoke to the Jordanian King a few days ago, but abstained on a resolution that was introduced by Jordan. It is an inconsistent foreign policy,” he said in the message.<\/p>\n
“It is SHOCKING that @narendramodi govt abstained on the @UN resolution for a humanitarian truce & protection of civilian lives”, Owaisi said.<\/p>\n
India on Friday abstained from the UN General Assembly on a Jordanian-drafted resolution titled Protection of civilians and upholding legal and humanitarian obligations’ that called for an immediate humanitarian truce in the Israel-Hamas conflict and unhindered humanitarian access in the Gaza strip.<\/p>\n
According to Owaisi, as many as 7,028 people have been allegedly killed by Israel in Gaza and over 3,000 of them are children and 1,700 women.<\/p>\n
He further said at least 45 per cent of housing in Gaza has been allegedly destroyed, displacing over 1.4 million people. Even in peacetime, Gazans face a complete blockade and have to depend on humanitarian aid. Things have only worsened since the war began.<\/p>\n
“This is a HUMANITARIAN issue, not a political one. In abstaining on the resolution, India stands alone in the Global South, in South Asia & in BRICS. Why did India abstain on an issue concerning civilian life? After sending aid to Gaza, why abstain? What happened to “one world one family”? & “vishwaguru”?,” Owaisi questioned PM Modi.<\/p>\n
