PM Modi’s Fiery Parliament Speech: A Rebuke of Congress’s Doubts
In a sharp rebuke during a recent parliamentary session, Prime Minister Narendra Modi slammed the Congress party for consistently questioning the Indian armed forces’ operations. He accused the opposition party of employing a ‘negative approach,’ citing several high-profile instances to support his claim.
Modi highlighted the Congress’s demands for proof and photographic evidence following crucial military actions such as the surgical strikes and the Balakot airstrikes. He pointedly contrasted this skepticism with the successful return of Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman and a BSF jawan, underscoring the effectiveness of the operations and the bravery of the Indian military personnel.
Furthermore, the Prime Minister lauded India’s robust air defense system, implicitly refuting any suggestion of operational failures or lack of preparedness. His remarks paint a clear picture of a deep-seated disagreement over the appropriate level of public scrutiny concerning sensitive national security matters.
This parliamentary exchange underscores the ongoing tension between the ruling BJP and the Congress party, particularly concerning issues of national security and the role of the armed forces in India’s strategic landscape. The debate raises pertinent questions about the balance between transparency and the need to safeguard sensitive military operations.
