Meanwhile, BJP MP Jagdambika Pal has praised the Indian Army's Operation Sindoor, calling it a powerful act of revenge for the Pahalgam terror attack.
"Our army's revenge for Pahalgam was such that nine terrorist hideouts were destroyed at once. PM Narendra Modi had promised that to destroy the 'sindoor' of our sisters in Pahalgam."
Pal linked the operation to India's broader fight against terrorism, citing past attacks such as 26/11, Uri, Pulwama, and the 2001 Parliament attack.

"The attack in Pahalgam was marked with extreme barbarity, with the victims mostly killed with head shots at close range and in front of their family...the family members were deliberately traumatised through the manner of killing, accompanied by the exhortation that they should take back the message. The attack was clearly driven by the objective of undermining normalcy returning to Kashmir," he said.
