Indian PM offers hints to Russia in critical speech ;
“Does the Modi quote reinforce the argument that New Delhi is speaking with a forked tongue?
Indian foreign policy mandarins disagree with that notion. They maintain that this is a sign of the changing times, where an “India First” foreign policy is the need of the hour. New Delhi decides for itself, and its independent foreign policy cannot be subject to any kind of coercions.
India, which is home to one-fifth of the world’s population, deserves the right to form and hold its own position and to weigh its own interests in a multipolar world.”
