US President Donald Trump made a big disclosure. Trump said that efforts were made to change the government in India using crores of dollars from America. The help from America was used to defeat Narendra Modi in the election.
Trump said that the help that was being given to India through USAID (US Agency for International Development) showed that this money will be spent to increase the number of voters in India but Trump has evidence of this matter. It is that the claim to increase the voter turnout was just a show, this money was used to influence India’s election, to win someone else in the election. Went.
Trump’s statement simply means that the money received from USAID was used to defeat Narendra Modi in the election. In fact, this issue is in constant discussion since February 16 as on February 16, Alan Musk stopped funding of $ 48.6 million, or about 4300 crore rupees being given to many countries. This funding was given in the name of strengthening democracy. Out of this amount, $ 2.1 million i.e. about Rs 182 crore was sent to India. It was shown that this voter was given to increase turnout ie voting percentage.
Trump asked that India does not have a shortage of money, its economy is good, then India needs American AID to increase voter turnout? Why should America spend money to increase voter turnout in India? Pointing to the Biden administration, Trump said that the US government wanted to change the rule in India with this funding. Trump said that there is a need to investigate the matter as it is a case of misuse of USAID funds, they will inform the Government of India.
The politics in India has become hot due to Trump’s statement as George Soros also has a connection with the institution from which the help from USAID was used. George Soros has announced to run a campaign to remove Narendra Modi’s government in India many times. The big thing is that in the name of increasing voter turnouts in India, when the money received from USAID, it was claimed that Dalits and backward class voters in India take less participation in voting, so in reaching these sections, they are voting for voting. This money will be used to encourage it. Soon after that, Rahul Gandhi raised the issue of caste census in India. Then going to America, Rahul Gandhi said that democracy in India is in danger, Narendra Modi has captured all constitutional institutions and America and European countries are silent on it.
BJP leaders added all these links. Ravi Shankar Prasad said that it has become clear from Trump’s revelation that the funding that was being done from the US till now was being used to influence the election in India, to bring Narendra Modi’s government to demolish. In response to BJP’s allegations, the Congress said that USAID used to do many things in India. If there is any doubt, the government brought a white paper on the funding of USAID.
After what Donald Trump said, there is no scope for doubt. Fund came from America in India, came in the name of changing the voter turnout and was used to remove Modi from the government. This is the great public of India, on which the campaign from this funding did not affect much effect. The public won Modi for the third time but it is also an open secret that Rahul Gandhi benefited from it, Congress seats increased. But the disclosure made by Trump is that the US government changes governments in other countries on the strength of money. The same attempt was made to do in India, but America failed here. But what happened in our neighboring countries Pakistan and Bangladesh saw it all. Trump has now stopped this game. Now Trump does not want to give funds to change the government in any country.
This is a 360 degree turn in the policy of America. This will clearly see you in the case of Ukraine. Biden stood in support of Ukraine with full firmness. Helping Gelanski, to fight Russia. The US assisted Ukraine $ 300 billion but now Trump has taken a U-turn and has stood with Putin. (Rajat Sharma)
