NEW DELHI: Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi on Tuesday attacked PM Modi over the ceasefire on ‘Operation Sindoor’ and questioned the success and aim of India’s military retaliation on Pakistan.
Delivering a fiery speech in Lok Sabha, the Congress leader took a dig at the Centre's handling of ceasefire talks, referencing the sudden halt in ‘Operation Sindoor’.
“For the first time in history, war stopped, and our government didn’t announce it—United States President Trump did. What does that say about our leadership?” she emphasised.
Further, she raised concerns about Pakistan gaining influence at the global stage post-Sindoor. She was referring to Pakistan’s elevation as Vice Chair of the UN Counter-Terrorism Committee and Chair of the Taliban Sanctions Committee in June, weeks after the April 22 Pahalgam attack, followed by the Indian Army’s Operation Sindoor.
“If our operation was a success, how did this happen? Who takes responsibility?” she questioned.
