Bad weather forces Rahul to cancel Almora rally, return to Delhi
Congress MP and Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi's Almora rally was cancelled on Thursday owing to bad weather conditions in the Kumaon region.
Congress leader Jairam Ramesh has taken a sarcastic jab at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, hoping that he will attend the G20 summit in South Africa after US President Donald Trump’s reported boycott.
“Now that President Trump has announced he will not be attending the G20 Summit in South Africa, we can be certain that the self-styled Vishwaguru will himself attend in person,” Ramesh said in a post on handle X on Saturday.

The G20 summit, a key global forum for addressing economic and geopolitical challenges, is scheduled to take place in Johannesburg on November 22-23. Modi’s attendance has been under scrutiny, especially after he reportedly skipped a regional leaders’ summit in Malaysia to avoid a possible meeting with Trump.

The development reflects the complex diplomatic dynamics between India and the US, with strained relations over issues like trade tariffs and India’s purchase of Russian oil. The global community will be watching closely as the summit approaches.
