"Parliament session should be conducted...": RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav

Patna (Bihar) [India], May 13 (ANI): Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav on Tuesday said that a Parliament session should be conducted to praise the Armed Forces' bravery and thank them for their sacrifice.
"The country's army has given a befitting reply. At least a Parliament session should be conducted to praise their bravery and thank them for their sacrifice," Tejashwi Yadav told reporters.
Several opposition leaders have urged the Centre to convene a special session of Parliament to discuss the Pahalgam Terror Attack, Operation Sindoor and the announcement of cessation of hostilities first from Washington DC and later by the Governments of India and Pakistan.
On Monday, the RJD leader met the family of BSF Sub Inspector Mohammed Imtiaz, who lost his life during shelling by Pakistan in J-K.
"Yesterday, I met his son, but I was not able to meet other family members. So, I will meet his other family members and express my condolences to them. We are proud of him as a Bihar's son sacrificed his life for the nation's security," the RJD leader said.
SF Sub-Inspector Mohammed Imtiaz, who lost his life in the line of duty due to cross-border shelling from Pakistan in Jammu and Kashmir's RS Pura sector on Saturday, was a resident of Bihar's Chhapra.
Earlier today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the Adampur Air Base in Jalandhar and interacted with Air Warriors days after the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan.
"Earlier this morning, I went to AFS Adampur and met our brave air warriors and soldiers. It was a very special experience to be with those who epitomise courage, determination and fearlessness. India is eternally grateful to our armed forces for everything they do for our nation," the PM said in a post on X.
In his address to the Nation on Monday, PM Modi said the forces had been given full freedom to wipe out terrorists.
"Every terror organisation now knows 'ki hamari behano, betiyon ke maathe se Sindoor hatane ka anjaam kya hota hai," the PM said.
PM Modi said Indian Air Force, Army Navy, Border Security Force and India's paramilitary forces are constantly on alert.
Operation Sindoor was launched on May 7 to strike multiple terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir in retaliation for a deadly attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam on April 22 in which 26 tourists were killed.
In addition to eliminating over 100 terrorists, the strikes targeted 11 Air bases inside Pakistan and inflicted significant damage on their military capabilities. The air, land and sea operations were carried out with calibrated restraint, with an emphasis on minimising civilian casualties. (ANI)
