Insulting Army in Congress’ DNA: BJP on Praniti’s ‘Tamasha’ Remark
In a scathing attack on the Congress party, BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla reacted sharply to the comments made by Congress MP Praniti Shinde during a debate in Parliament on Monday. Shinde had dubbed Operation Sindoor, launched by the Indian Armed Forces in retaliation for the Pahalgam terror attack, as “Tamasha of the government in the media”. Poonawalla took to Twitter to respond to Shinde’s remarks, saying, “Sena ka Apman is Congress ki pehchaan” (Insulting Army is in Congress’ DNA).
Poonawalla’s remarks were in response to Shinde’s comments, which were seen as an attempt to downplay the significance of the operation and portray it as a publicity stunt. Shinde’s remarks sparked outrage among Indians, who took to social media to express their dismay at her comments. Poonawalla’s response was seen as a strong rebuke to Shinde’s insinuations and an attempt to defend the Indian Armed Forces’ efforts in the face of terrorism.
Operation Sindoor was launched by the Indian Army in response to the Pahalgam terror attack, which killed three jawans and injured several others. The operation was a massive success, with the Indian Army reportedly killing several terrorists and neutralizing the threat to the region. Shinde’s comments were seen as an attempt to undermine the success of the operation and portray the Indian Army as ineffective.
Poonawalla’s remarks were seen as a strong defense of the Indian Army and a rebuke to Shinde’s comments. He pointed out that the Congress party has a history of insulting the Indian Army and questioned their commitment to national security. Poonawalla’s remarks were widely shared on social media, with many Indians expressing their support for the Indian Army and their outrage at Shinde’s comments.
The controversy surrounding Shinde’s comments is not the first time that the Congress party has been accused of insulting the Indian Army. In the past, several Congress leaders have made remarks that were seen as critical of the Indian Army and its efforts in the face of terrorism. The party’s leadership has consistently denied any wrongdoing and claimed that their remarks were taken out of context.
However, the latest controversy has sparked a renewed debate about the Congress party’s commitment to national security and its relationship with the Indian Army. Many Indians have expressed their disappointment and anger at the party’s perceived lack of respect for the Indian Army and its sacrifices.
The controversy has also sparked a debate about the role of Opposition parties in Parliament and their responsibility to defend the country’s national interests. Many Indians have questioned whether the Congress party is truly committed to national security and whether they are simply using the platform of Parliament to make provocative remarks.
In conclusion, Poonawalla’s remarks were a strong defense of the Indian Army and a rebuke to Shinde’s comments. The controversy surrounding Shinde’s remarks highlights the need for political parties to exercise caution when making comments about the Indian Army and national security. It is essential that political parties in India prioritize national security and show respect for the Indian Army’s sacrifices.
It is also essential that Opposition parties in Parliament fulfill their responsibility to defend the country’s national interests and not use the platform to make provocative remarks. The Indian Army is a symbol of national pride and a key component of India’s national security. Any attempts to undermine its credibility and effectiveness must be strongly condemned.
