On one hand Bangladesh is burning and on the other hand Pakistan is trying to contact the opposition MPs of India through Mango Diplomacy. BJP has claimed that the Pakistan High Commissioner in Delhi has sent cartons of mangoes to 7 Indian MPs including opposition leader Rahul Gandhi. Mango diplomacy has been used as a way to sweeten relations with each other.
BJP has attacked the opposition after Rahul Gandhi and other opposition MPs received mangoes from the Pakistani embassy. BJP leader Amit Malviya posted on Instagram saying, ‘Why would the Pakistan High Commission send cartons of mangoes to these select 7 Indian MPs? Rahul Gandhi, Kapil Sibal, Shashi Tharoor, Mohibullah Nadvi, Zia ur Rehman Burke, Afzal Ansari and Iqra Hasan. One can also identify who sends mangoes to some people from this.’

While talking to the media, Giriraj Singh said, ‘Rahul Gandhi had said some time ago that he does not like the mangoes of UP. Pakistan’s embassy has sent mangoes to him. Rahul Gandhi should tell what other things he likes besides mangoes from Pakistan. Has he gone to Pakistan to ask for something new to remove Modi? He has nefarious relations with Pakistan.’
Sheikh Hasina also used to send mangoes
Let us tell you that mangoes have traditionally served as a diplomatic weapon. Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina used to send mangoes to Prime Minister Modi almost every year since he took office. Earlier, she had also sent mangoes to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and former Congress President Sonia Gandhi.
Nawaz Sharif also did Mango Diplomacy
It is worth mentioning that in 2015, amidst the incidents of firing on the border from Pakistan, the then Pak PM Nawaz Sharif had extended the hand of friendship through ‘Mango Diplomacy’. Nawaz Sharif had then sent mangoes for PM Narendra Modi. Apart from PM Modi, mangoes were also sent from Pakistan for the then President Pranab Mukherjee and Congress President Sonia Gandhi.
