On the last day of his US visit, Rahul Gandhi met a delegation of American politicians in Washington DC late on Tuesday night. During this meeting held at Rayburn House, Ilhan Umar, who made anti-India statements, was also present, over which Rahul Gandhi came under BJP's target.

Home Minister Amit Shah said that standing with anti-national forces has become a habit of Rahul Gandhi and the Congress party. On his visit to America, Rahul Gandhi also alleged that democracy in India has been severely damaged in the last 10 years and it is getting back on track because of the Congress.

In the meantime, he also targeted the Prime Minister. Reacting to Rahul Gandhi's accusations, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh said that the way Rahul Gandhi is making misleading and factual statements on foreign visits is extremely shameful and hurts the honor of India.
