In response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s impassioned speech in Rajasthan, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi made a dig at the PM on Thursday, asserting why does his blood boil only in front of the cameras.
PM Modi today stated that Operation Sindoor indicated to Pakistan that it would need to pay a heavy price for plotting and aiding terrorist attacks in India. He also stated that “there is no blood flowing in Modi’s veins, but hot sindoor (vermilion).”
Retort of Rahul Gandhi to Modi’s Speech
“Modiji, stop giving hollow speeches. Just tell me, why did you believe Pakistan’s statement on terrorism? Why did you sacrifice India’s interests by bowing to Trump? Why does your blood boil only in front of cameras? You have compromised the honour of India!” Rahul Gandhi wrote on X.
Earlier on Thursday, Jairam Ramesh, the Congress leader, alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made “grand-sounding but hollow filmi” speeches.
Jairam Ramesh posted, “Instead of throwing out grand-sounding but hollow filmi dialogues in public rallies as he has done in Bikaner today, the Prime Minister should answer serious questions that are being asked of him.”
Allegations on Pahalgam Terror Attack
“Why are the brutal killers of Pahalgam still free according to some reports, they had been responsible for three earlier terror attacks in Poonch, Gagangir, and Gulmarg over the past 18 months. Why have you not chaired any all-party meeting and taken the opposition parties into confidence?” he added.
The prime minister recalled his visit to Rajasthan after the Balakot airstrikes and said, “This brave land of Rajasthan teaches us that nothing is greater than the country and its citizens. On April 22nd, terrorists destroyed the vermilion from the foreheads of our sisters by asking about their religion. Terrorists fired those bullets in Pahalgam, and they pierced the hearts of 140 crore countrymen. After this, every citizen of the country united and resolved that they would wipe out the terrorists. We will punish them more than they can imagine.”
India’s Retaliation for Pahalgam Terror Attack
Last week, India took revenge for the Pahalgam terror attack by targeting nine terrorist locations in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. India subsequently inflicted heavy damage on Pakistan’s air bases in retaliation for the Pakistani armed forces’ attack on Indian defence installations and populated areas.
The four-day-long hostilities were suspended after India and Pakistan’s DGMOs signed a ceasefire agreement.
