Indian Overseas Congress Chairman Sam Pitroda has stirred another controversy, stating that Pakistan "felt like home" during a past visit. His comments, made during a discussion on India's foreign policy, have drawn sharp criticism and are seen by some as an embarrassment to the Congress party.
In a recent interview, Pitroda, a close aide of Rahul Gandhi, remarked, "I have been to Bangladesh, I have been to Nepal. I have been to Pakistan in the past. When I went there, I didn't feel like I was abroad; it felt like home." He spoke about the people and the atmosphere, adding that India should learn to live in peace and harmony with its neighbors.
