Why shouldn't India have closer realtions with other like-minded democracies including the US, Australia, Japan etc, and why should the two-faced Commies have a problem with that? I suppose comrade Karat and his band of Commie traitors would prefer India had closer relations with oppressive totalitarian countries like China and Russia which butchered tens of millions of their own people in the name of Communism, right? What great company comrade Karat and his proletariat of the people keep, indeed.
