The Congress party on Wednesday expressed unhappiness with Prime Minister Narendra Modi going the extra mile for US President Donald Trump's daughter and advisor Ivanka Trump.
Ivanka, 36, a businesswoman, fashion designer and the eldest daughter of the US President, was invited by Modi during his visit to the White House in June to speak at the Global Entrepreneur Summit (GES).
She is leading the US contingent at the Summit themed 'Women First, Prosperity for All'.
"Prime Minister has belittled the position of PM by attending an event of Ivanka Trump, Telangana CM was already there," said senior Congress leader Anand Sharma.
Further questioning why does PM need a certificate from outsiders and dubious foreign rating agencies, Sharma said. "He should ask people of Gujarat for the certificate."
Congress chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala also took on PM Modi saying, "Dear Modi ji,how hypocritical can you you get?"
"Beggars & homeless of Hyderabad are evicted to make way for the glitzy summit! Yesterday in Gujarat, you indulged in self-victimization for political gains and made an issue out of your humble beginnings, but Today you insult the poor!," Surjewala tweeted.
Modi also hosted Ivanka to a lavish dinner at Hyderabad's Falaknuma Palace
Showering generous praise on the Prime Minister in her keynote address at the 8th annual Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) in Hyderabad on Tuesday, Ivanka termed Modi's achievement as 'truly extraordinary'.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has proved that transformational change is possible in rising from a humble tea seller to heading the country, she said.
