During Rahul Gandhi’s visit to Kailash Mansarovar in September last year, he had a meeting with a couple of Chinese ministers. And this sensational revelation comes from Rahul Gandhi himself, not from any other source.
While talking about the loss of jobs due to automation, Rahul Gandhi said he had met with Chinese ministers during his visit to Kailash Mansarovar. Rahul Gandhi made these comments while on his way to a town hall meeting titled Reimagining India in Bhubaneswar today.
Answering a question about automation concerns in job creation, Rahul Gandhi said a pair of Chinese ministers told him during his visit to Kailash that China has no problems creating jobs due to automation. He said that “how can China, in an automated world, is producing 50,000 new jobs in every 24 hours, why? Why is it that automation is a problem in Europe, automation is a problem in India, but the Does not automation seem to bother the Chinese? When I went to Kailash, I met a couple of their ministers and they told me that job creation is not a problem in China.
There was no report on the meeting of Rahul Gandhi with the Chinese ministers during his pilgrimage to the sacred lake, this means that the meeting was kept secret, and Rahul Gandhi accidentally revealed it while talking about an unrelated matter in Odisha today. Rahul Gandhi is a member of parliament and president of the largest opposition party. Also, China is not a friendly country, it is hostile towards India. China claims that Arunachal Pradesh is its territory, its forces regularly meddling on the Indian side of the border. Therefore, any unpublished meeting with the Chinese government by Indian politicians is a serious issue.
It is not known if the government of India is aware of this meeting.
This is not the first time that the president of the Congress had secret meetings with foreign dignitaries that will be revealed later. On July 8, 2017, Rahul Gandhi met with the Chinese Ambassador to India, Luo Zhaohui, who did not go public. When some media companies reported on the meeting, the Congress party called it false news. But then the meeting was confirmed by the Chinese embassy on its website.
The meeting between Rahul Gandhi and the Chinese ambassador took place when both countries engaged in the Doklam Standoff, which lasted until August 2017.
