Referring to the comparison made with the COVID-19 period, the AAP leader said invoking such a serious national experience could cause anxiety among people if not explained properly. He added that the public deserves transparency and clarity regarding the implications of global developments for India.
The remarks come amid heightened tensions in West Asia, which have triggered international concern and discussions about potential geopolitical and economic impacts. Political leaders across parties have been reacting to the situation and its possible consequences for the country.
Dhanda further said that responsible communication from authorities is essential during times of global uncertainty so that misinformation does not spread and public confidence remains intact.
