She took a dig at PM Modi saying that leadership is not just about taking credit but also taking responsibility.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">\u201cLeadership is not just about taking credit but responsibility also needs to be taken\u2026 First time in the history of our country, this happened that the war was stopped abruptly. This is reflective of the irresponsibility of our Prime Minister,&#8221; Gandhi said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">She asked whether it is not responsibility of the PM, the Home Minister, the Defence Minister, and the National Security Advisor to ensure people\u2019s security.<\/p>\n<div class=\"twtiframe\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">In Lok Sabha, Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra says, \u201cThis government always tries to escape the questions\u2026They have no sense of accountability towards the citizens of the nation.

Why they were left at God\u2019s mercy? Was no government agency in the know that such a dastardly terror attack is going to happen and a plot is being hatched in Pakistan,&#8221; she asked.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">\u201cIt is a big failure of our government and intelligence agencies. Who will take responsibility of this? Has anyone resigned? They keep talking about past but who will answer about what is happening in present,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">The Wayanad MP also accused the central government of consistently evading questions, saying it shows no sense of accountability to the people. \u201cThe truth is that they have no place for the public in their heart.
