New Delhi [India], July 28 (ANI): Launching a scathing attack on Congress over P Chidambaram remarks on Operation Sindoor, Delhi Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa termed it very shameful, adding that the Congress today speaks the language of Pakistan and China.

Speaking to ANI, Sirsa said, Today, P Chidambaram ji has given a very shameful statement. To say that there is no evidence of Pakistani terrorists involvement in the Pahlalgam attack, Congress leaders speak the language of Pakistan, and P Chidambaram, who was the Home Minister earlier, shows that Congress today speaks the language of Pakistan and China, said Manjinder Singh.

Earlier, BJP MP Santosh Pandey from Rajnandgaon strongly criticised MP, Rajya Sabha P Chidambaram over his comment that there is no proof that the Pahalgam attackers came from Pakistan and compared him to an owl that sees only in the dark, implying that the former Home Minister is blind to the reality of cross-border terrorism.

Just like an owl can see only in the darkness of night but is blind in daylight, Chidambaram is the same way, Pandey told reporters, taking a swipe at the Congress veteran political judgment and stance on cross-border terrorism.

His comments come in the wake of a political storm over statements made by Chidambaram ahead of a discussion in Parliament on Operation Sindoor, India counter-response following the deadly terror attack on tourists in Jammu and Kashmir Pahalgam, which took the lives of 26 people.

Earlier in the day, BJP MP Anurag Thakur also slammed the Congress, saying even Pakistan doesnt advocate for itself as much as Rahul-occupied Congress does.

Speaking to ANI, Thakur said, Whenever it about Pakistan and terror, even Pakistan doesnt advocate for itself as much as Rahul-occupied Congress does. What is the compulsion that Congress has to take Pakistan side? Such a statement, coming from a former Home Minister, reveals the mentality of the Congress. (ANI)
