Later Gandhi took to Twitter in the evening to
defend his meeting with the Chinese envoy and said it was his job "to be
informed on critical issues", referring to the India-China stand-off and
said if the government was concerned about his meeting with the Chinese
ambassador, they should also question the three Union ministers who are
"availing Chinese hospitality when the border stand-off is on".
