Pak Ranked Worse Than India in US Travel Advisories: BJP to Congress
The latest travel advisory issued by the United States has become a topic of heated debate between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Indian National Congress. The BJP’s IT department head, Amit Malviya, took to Twitter to contradict the Congress’s claim that the US has issued a travel advisory for India but not for Pakistan.
The controversy began when the Congress party started circulating a message claiming that the US has issued a travel advisory for India, but not for Pakistan. However, Amit Malviya, the BJP’s IT department head, was quick to set the record straight. According to Malviya, the US’s updated travel advisories have put Pakistan and Bangladesh at Level 3 (reconsider travel), while India is at Level 2 (exercise increased caution).
Malviya’s tweet read, “Contrary to Congress’s misleading claim, Pakistan is actually ranked worse than India in the US travel advisories. The US has put Pakistan & Bangladesh at Level 3 (reconsider travel) while India is at Level 2 (exercise increased caution). #FactCheck #TruthWins”
The BJP’s claims were supported by official government data, which shows that the US Department of State has indeed issued travel advisories for Pakistan and Bangladesh, warning citizens of potential risks such as terrorism, kidnapping, and civil unrest.
The US travel advisory system is divided into four levels, with Level 4 being the highest and most dangerous. Level 3, which Pakistan and Bangladesh are currently under, advises citizens to reconsider travel to these countries due to the risks of terrorism, crime, and political instability.
On the other hand, India is currently under Level 2, which advises citizens to exercise increased caution when traveling to the country. This level is generally considered to be a relatively low-risk category, indicating that the country is generally safe for tourists and business travelers.
The BJP’s response to the Congress’s claim has raised several questions about the party’s intentions. Some have accused the BJP of trying to divert attention away from the real issues facing the country, such as poverty, unemployment, and corruption.
Others have questioned the Congress’s motives for making such a claim, suggesting that they may be trying to gain political mileage by exploiting the issue.
Regardless of the motivations behind the controversy, one thing is clear: the US travel advisory system is designed to provide citizens with critical information about the risks associated with traveling to different countries. By ignoring or distorting this information, political parties can do a disservice to the public and undermine trust in the government.
In conclusion, the BJP’s IT department head Amit Malviya has set the record straight on the US travel advisories for India and Pakistan. While the Congress party may have attempted to mislead the public on this issue, the facts are clear: Pakistan and Bangladesh are ranked worse than India in the US travel advisories.
