New Delhi [India], October 23 (ANI): Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Thursday took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not travelling to Kuala Lumpur, saying that the latter was not going for the 47th Asean Summit as he doesn't want to be "cornered" by US President Donald Trump .

"The PM may well be recalling that old hit Bollywood number: Bachke rehna re baba, bachke rehna re," Ramesh, General Secretary incharge of Communication in Congress , posted on X.

"For days the speculation has been - will He or won't He? Will Modi go to Kuala Lumpur for the Summit or not? Now it appears certain that the PM will not go. It means the loss of so many opportunities to hug and get photo ops with world leaders or to flaunt himself as the self-styled Vishwaguru," he added.
