New Delhi: Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge on Saturday demanded a special session of Parliament concerning Operation Sindoor, alleging that government had “misled the nation” and instead of clarifying US President Donald Trump’s assertions, Prime Minister Narendra Modi “is on an election blitz, taking personal credit for the valour of the Armed Forces”.
In a post on X, Kharge referred to remarks made by the Chief of Defence Staff during an interview and demanded a comprehensive review of the country’s defence preparedness by an independent expert committee.
“In the wake of the remarks made by the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) in Singapore in an interview, there are some very important questions which need to be asked. These can only be asked if a Special Session of the Parliament is immediately convened. The Modi Govt has misled the nation. The fog of war is now clearing,” Kharge said.
“Our IAF pilots were risking their lives fighting the enemy. We have suffered some losses, but our pilots were safe. As per CDS’s interview, ‘we made, remedy it, rectify it, and then implement it again after two days and flew all our jets again, targeting at long range’. We salute their resolute courage and bravery. However, a comprehensive strategic review is the need of the hour. Congress party demands a Comprehensive Review of our Defence Preparedness by an independent expert committee, on the lines of the Kargil Review Committee,” he added. (IANS)
