The Congress on Friday (May 1, 2026) criticized Union Home Minister Amit Shah for being “silent” on key political demands of the people of Ladakh during his ongoing visit, even as he participated in events related to the display of sacred Buddhist relics.
Congress general secretary (communications) Jairam Ramesh, in a social media post, said the home minister appeared to be “basking in the glory of the Piprahwa relics” while avoiding pressing issues like statehood.
