India's Oil Purchase Exemption Sparks International Criticism and Humiliation

The country has never been in such a shameful situation since independence. The CPI (M) Politburo said this in reference to the announcement of a'thirty-day exemption'for India to buy oil from Russia. The Politburo demanded that the Modi government now appeal to stop the war so that peace returns. The country's self-esteem can be restored. The Narendra Modi government has faced tremendous humiliation at home and around the world over the statement of the US Secretary of the Treasury. Scott Besant's statement said that'the Finance Department is allowing India to buy oil for refineries with a temporary 30-day exemption '. India is an essential partner of the US. India is expected to increase its oil purchases from the US. Questions are being raised across the country as to who will allow the US to buy oil from India? CPI (M) General Secretary MA Baby said, "Since when has the country needed someone else's permission to decide on the country's needs? This has never happened in the history of independent India." Baby said, "We have to tell the US government that we are still independent."
