Senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and national media in-charge Anurag Dhanda has once again targeted the Central government, raising sharp questions over India’s foreign policy and national security. Known for addressing public-interest issues across Delhi, Haryana, Gujarat, Goa and several other states, Dhanda’s latest criticism has sparked widespread political discussion.
Anurag Dhanda Strong Remarks on X (Twitter)
Reacting to a post mentioning the cancellation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s scheduled visit to India, Anurag Dhanda posted a strong statement on X. He wrote:
“In matters of foreign policy and national security, the Modi government has completely failed.”
The brief but pointed remark is being interpreted as a heavy political attack on the Centre, intensifying debate on India’s security preparedness and diplomatic standing.
Background: Why Has Foreign Policy Come Under Question?
Dhanda’s criticism follows a high-profile security incident in Delhi earlier this month. On 10 November, a powerful explosion near the historic Red Fort triggered nationwide concern and drew global attention. The incident raised serious questions about internal security management, especially in a high-surveillance zone of the national capital.
According to media reports, this security breach prompted Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to cancel his India visit, citing safety considerations. Both nations are expected to discuss a new mutually agreeable date for the visit in 2026.
Opposition Raises Accountability Questions
The cancellation has become a political flashpoint, with opposition leaders—including Dhanda—claiming that the incident reflects poorly on the government’s handling of security and diplomacy. They argue that India’s global image and its relations with strategic partners are being negatively impacted.
A Growing Political Debate
Anurag Dhanda’s comment is now widely discussed in political circles and on social media. While the government has not issued an official response to his remark, the episode has intensified the Opposition’s narrative around alleged lapses in national security and foreign policy execution.
