New Delhi: Congress on Wednesday dismissed government's claim of isolation of Pakistan at the just-concluded BRICS summit and asked what was it chest-thumping about.
-"We do not have in the BRICS Summit Declaration a single word for Pakistan. We do not have in the BRICS Declaration a single word - forget action - on Jaish. We do not have in the BRICS Declaration a single word about LeT.
-"We do not have in the Declaration a single word about cross border terrorism,-" party spokesman Abhishek Singhvi told reporters, insisting that the media has been -"fed by the staple diet of chest-thumping, self-congratulatory press blitzkrieg by soldiers of the BJP-".
He insisted that the Declaration does -"not have a single word of support-" on the issue from either China or Russia - India's long time friend.
He said what was significant in the Declaration is that there is -"specific reference-" to several other threatening organisations which threaten China and Russia -"but those who threaten India have no place. What are you chest-thumping about -"
-"You decide for yourself whether the glass is one quarter full and three quarters empty,-" Singhvi remarked.
