Rahul Gandhi, the leader of opposition in Lok Sabha, will skip the government's all-party meet on the US-Iran war due to a prior engagement in Kerala.
Gandhi criticized the PM's handling of the crisis, saying the situation could not be corrected due to a 'structural blunder' and alleging that the government was following the United States' lead.
Defence minister Rajnath Singh is expected to chair the meeting, while Congress president and leader of opposition in the Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge is also likely to attend.
PM Modi emphasized that in such difficult times, a united message should emerge from India's Parliament, asserting that peace and dialogue are the only way to resolve the conflict.
