NEW DELHI: Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Monday launched a sharp attack on the Opposition for stalling Parliament proceedings and backing out from their commitment to participate in the debate on 'Operation Sindoor', warning them against speaking in a manner that could demoralise the Indian armed forces.
He warned the Opposition parties to refrain from speaking the language of Pakistan during the discussion on India's military response against cross-border terrorism.
Speaking to reporters after both Houses of Parliament were adjourned for the second time in the day, Rijiju said, "Just 10 minutes ago, the Opposition took a U-turn from their commitment and staged a drama of walking away from the Operation Sindoor discussion. This is not right. Parliament is set to resume in half an hour, and these new preconditions from the Opposition will not work."
He confirmed that Defence Minister Rajnath Singh would table the government's proposal and initiate the debate on Operation Sindoor.
