The Privatization of Diplomacy Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge has slammed the Centre for cancelling Telangana CM Revanth Reddy's US tour, calling it a "deeply unfair" move.
Kharge alleges that the Centre is engaging in selective granting of travel permissions.
The concept of chief ministers' foreign tours might seem innocuous – engaging with diaspora communities, exploring investment opportunities, and strengthening national economies through local economic development initiatives.
