New Delhi: Congress leader and Lok Sabha MP Priyanka Gandhi launched a sharp attack on the ruling party in the Lok Sabha over the recent Pahalgam terror attack, raising questions on intelligence failure and lack of security arrangements.
Participating in a special discussion on Operation Sindoor, Gandhi accused the government of evading accountability. “People of the ruling party spoke on various aspects but did not answer why and how the Pahalgam terror attack took place,” she said.
Highlighting the security lapse, she questioned, “Didn’t the government know that thousands of tourists visit the Baisaran valley? Why was there no security? Why were they left to God’s trust?”
The Congress MP also criticised Home Minister Amit Shah for focusing on emotional references during the discussion. “He talked about the tears of Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, even his mother (Sonia Gandhi), but did not explain why the war was stopped when the enemy had no place to run away,” she said.
