Opposition Questions Modi's Silence on Pahalgam Attack and Trump's Ceasefire Claims

In a heated debate in the Lok Sabha, opposition parties expressed discontent with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's response concerning the Operation Sindoor. They claimed that Modi sidestepped crucial questions about the intelligence lapse in Pahalgam and U.S. President Donald Trump's assertions of mediating a ceasefire between India and Pakistan.

Congress leader Pawan Khera voiced frustration over Modi's lack of concrete answers, querying the perceived failure in preventing terrorist entry into India. Opposition leaders also highlighted Modi's failure to secure international condemnation of Pakistan's actions and criticized his reticence to name China in his speech.

Trinamool Congress MP Sagarika Ghose described Modi's address as more theatrical than substantive, failing to address intelligence oversights and diplomatic shortcomings. The opposition underscored the need for accountability and transparency from the government, especially regarding national security issues.
