Prime Minister Narendra Modi is trending again after news of him skipping President Pranab Mukherjee's Iftar party hit the circles, and has been hit with criticism from people all over the country, including politicians. Amongst the many who're completely pissed with his decision to not attend the party on Wednesday, 15th July 2015, is Omar Abdullah.

Here's a PMO statement on this justifying his absence:

"The Prime Minister will chair a meeting with Chief Ministers from the North-Eastern states, including Sikkim, at 1900 hrs tomorrow. Important development projects related to these states and the entire North-Eastern region are likely to figure in this meeting."

Interestingly, earlier in the day, Modi chaired the second meeting of the Governing Council of the NITI Aayog at his official residence in New Delhi. Last year too, he missed the party because he chose to travel to Mumbai instead.

Also, let's not forget how Modi has been criticized for never hosting an Iftar party!
