Sonia Gandhi has alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi avoids eye contact during face‑to‑face interactions, claiming there is practically no real contact.
Sonia Gandhi, the senior leader of the Indian National Congress, has publicly stated that Prime Minister Narendra Modi avoids making eye contact during face‑to‑face interactions. According to Gandhi, the lack of eye contact indicates a lack of genuine engagement in meetings.
The comment was made in a statement released by Gandhi’s office, where she highlighted the importance of eye contact as a sign of respect and sincerity in political discourse. She emphasized that such behavior undermines the spirit of open dialogue.
The remarks come at a time when the political climate is highly polarized, and leaders’ conduct is closely scrutinized by the public and media alike.
