"What's wrong with that?": Telangana Minister on Congress asking questions concerning Operation Sindoor

New Delhi [India], May 31 (ANI): Telangana Minister Uttam Kumar Reddy on Saturday slammed BJP leader Sambit Patra for his "Pakistan ke babbar" jibe at party leaders and said there is nothing wrong in asking questions of the government about account of gains and losses during a military conflict.
"If somebody asks if India has lost a fighter aircraft, what is wrong with that. Today, (CDS) General Chauhan gave this answer, so what is wrong if any Congress leader asks this question?... Whenever there is a conflict, all nations give their victories and losses. To a question asked by Congress leaders, why did the BJP react that we are anti-national and anti-patriotic?. What will they say today when General Chauhan has said that we lost a fighter aircraft?" he told ANI.
Talking to the media, Reddy also talked about to US remarks about mediation.
"As it appears very clearly, Rafale aircraft were shot down in the foreday operations... An hour ago, CDS General Anil Chauhan confirmed this... The government of India should now stop denying this..." He also says, "The government has never explained why US President Trump announced the ceasefire before either of the DGMOs of both countries spoke," he said.
India carried out Operation Sindoor on May 7 and launched precision strikes on terror infrastructure in Pakistan and PoJK in response to the Pahalgam terror attack.
India also repelled subsequent Pakistan aggression and pounded its airbases.
Sambit Patra had attacked the Congress and said party leaders Rahul Gandhi, Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and Jairam Ramesh had not asked how many Pakistan airbases were destroyed or terrorists were killed.
"Rahul Gandhi, Jairam Ramesh, and Revanth Reddy are asking how many Rafales were shot down. 'Yeh jo Pakistan ke Babbar hain, woh Hindustan ke Gabbar hain'. Rahul Gandhi did not ask how many Pakistani airbases were destroyed, how many terrorists were killed; rather, he only asked how many Indian planes were shot down. Today, there are two factions in Congress - one which supports Pakistan and the other which wants to raise a voice for the country but is unable to do so because of you. Your 'Jai Hind Yatra' looks like 'Pakistan's Hind Yatra' and you should stop this yatra and hold a joint press conference with Pakistan", Sambit Patra had said. (ANI)
