The Biju Janata Dal (BJD), Odisha's main opposition party, raised questions against the BJP-led NDA government over President Donald Trump's comments regarding a ceasefire during Operation Sindoor. The BJD's MP Sasmit Patra voiced these concerns in the Rajya Sabha, seeking clarity on the matter.
Patra emphasized that despite the government's insistence that no conversation occurred between the Indian Prime Minister and the US President, Trump continued to assert his involvement. The exchange arose shortly after Prime Minister Modi's statement in Lok Sabha, denying any external pressure to halt Operation Sindoor.
In his address, Patra celebrated the valor of India's Armed Forces and mentioned the global solidarity witnessed during the All-Party Parliamentary Delegation's visit to various nations. He highlighted their unanimous stand against terrorism, underscoring India's call for a zero-tolerance approach to terror.
