A day after Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett jokingly invited Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to join his party, the Indian National Congress slammed the Indian PM and said it was a "great idea."

“Great idea from PM Bennett; first step to save India,” the Congress said on social media platform Twitter.

The 'grand old party' of India said this in response to a post on the micro-blogging platform by the Bharatiya Janata Party of a video in which Bennett heaped praise on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
