Why is Congress speaking language of Pak: BJP leader Thakur
In a stinging critique, BJP leader Anurag Thakur slammed Congress and other Opposition parties for their alleged soft stance on Pakistani nationals in India. Thakur’s remarks come at a time when India is facing a surge in cross-border terrorism and Islamabad’s refusal to take concrete steps to curb the menace.
Addressing a press conference, Thakur questioned the compulsion behind Congress and its allies speaking the language of Pakistan. “What is the compulsion for Congress and its other allies to speak the language of Pakistan?” he asked. “The question is, does Congress even stand with India?” he added.
Thakur’s comments were in response to recent statements made by Congress leaders, which he claimed were being quoted by Pakistani politicians. “Pakistani politicians are quoting Congress leaders’ statements, which raises serious questions about their loyalty and commitment to the country,” Thakur said.
The BJP leader’s outburst is the latest salvo in the ongoing political slugfest between the ruling party and the Opposition. The Congress has been critical of the BJP’s handling of the situation at the border and its alleged failure to provide adequate security to Indian citizens.
However, Thakur’s criticism of the Congress and its allies goes beyond the political rhetoric. He accused them of being complicit in Pakistan’s efforts to destabilize India and undermine its sovereignty. “The language of Pakistan is not just about words; it’s about ideology, it’s about strategy, and it’s about the willingness to compromise national security for petty political gains,” Thakur said.
Thakur’s comments come at a time when India is facing a surge in cross-border terrorism. In recent months, there have been several instances of Pakistani nationals being arrested for their involvement in terrorist activities in India. Despite this, Thakur claimed that the Congress and its allies were working to undermine the government’s efforts to send these individuals back to their countries.
“Pakistani nationals who are involved in terrorist activities in India should be sent back to their countries. But the Congress and its allies are working to ensure that this does not happen,” Thakur said. “They are using every means possible to delay and obstruct the process of sending these individuals back to Pakistan.”
Thakur’s criticism of the Congress and its allies has sparked a fresh debate in the political arena. While some have defended the Congress’s stance, others have accused the party of being soft on terrorism and compromising national security.
In recent months, there have been several instances of Congress leaders making statements that have been seen as sympathetic to Pakistan’s stance on various issues. For example, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was criticized for his comments on the Kashmir issue, which were seen as downplaying the role of Pakistan-backed terrorists in the region.
Similarly, Congress leader P Chidambaram was criticized for his comments on the Pakistan-based terror outfit, Jaish-e-Mohammed. Chidambaram had described the outfit as a “militant organization” rather than a terrorist group, which was seen as a watering down of the government’s stance on terrorism.
Thakur’s criticism of the Congress and its allies has also raised questions about the party’s commitment to national security. While the Congress has been critical of the BJP’s handling of the situation at the border, Thakur claimed that the party was not doing enough to ensure the safety and security of Indian citizens.
“Pakistani nationals who are involved in terrorist activities in India should be sent back to their countries. But the Congress and its allies are working to ensure that this does not happen,” Thakur said. “They are using every means possible to delay and obstruct the process of sending these individuals back to Pakistan.”
Thakur’s comments have sparked a fresh debate in the political arena, with many calling for the Congress to clarify its stance on Pakistan and national security. While the party has denied any wrongdoing, Thakur’s criticism has raised questions about the party’s commitment to the country’s sovereignty and security.
As the political slugfest between the BJP and the Congress continues, it remains to be seen how the situation will unfold. One thing is clear, however: the Congress’s perceived soft stance on Pakistan has raised serious questions about its commitment to national security and the safety and security of Indian citizens.
