Jairam says ‘Our MPs are also roaming & Pahalgam terrorists are also roaming’, BJP criticises
In a recent statement that has sparked a heated debate, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh drew a comparison between the terrorists involved in the Pahalgam attack and the MPs who are part of India’s delegation on Operation Sindoor. Ramesh stated, “Our MPs are also roaming, and terrorists are roaming too.” This comment has been met with strong criticism from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which has accused Ramesh of making an “atrocious comparison” and undermining both the military strike and diplomatic efforts.
For those who may not be aware, Operation Sindoor is a recent military operation conducted by the Indian Army in which a group of terrorists, believed to be from Pakistan, were eliminated in a daring operation in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam area. The operation was hailed as a significant success, with the Indian Army showcasing its capabilities and bravery in the face of terrorism.
Jairam Ramesh’s comment, however, seems to have gone beyond mere criticism of the government’s handling of the situation. By drawing a comparison between terrorists and MPs, Ramesh appears to be suggesting that both are “roaming” freely, with no regard for the law or the consequences of their actions. This comparison is not only inaccurate but also highly misleading, and has been widely condemned by the BJP and other political parties.
In a statement, the BJP accused Ramesh of making a “most atrocious comparison” and undermining not just the military strike but also diplomatic efforts. The party claimed that Ramesh’s comment was an attempt to divide the nation and create confusion among the people. “This is how Congress undermines not just Military Strike (Operation Sindoor) but also diplomatic strike,” the BJP statement read.
The BJP’s criticism is not unfounded. By drawing a comparison between terrorists and MPs, Ramesh is essentially suggesting that the MPs are somehow complicit in the actions of the terrorists. This is not only an unfair accusation but also a gross distortion of the facts. The MPs who are part of the delegation on Operation Sindoor are, by definition, representatives of the people of India and are committed to upholding the law and protecting the nation. They are not terrorists and should not be compared to them in any way.
It is worth noting that Ramesh’s comment comes at a time when the nation is still reeling from the effects of terrorism. The Pahalgam attack, which was carried out by terrorists who infiltrated from Pakistan, was a brazen attempt to destabilize the region and create chaos. The fact that the Indian Army was able to eliminate the terrorists and restore peace to the area is a testament to its bravery and professionalism.
In conclusion, Jairam Ramesh’s comment is a misguided and inaccurate attempt to compare terrorists and MPs. The BJP is right to condemn his statement and demand an apology. The nation needs to stand united against terrorism and support its brave armed forces, rather than engaging in divisive and misleading rhetoric.
