The Leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge on Tuesday, while speaking in the upper house during a debate on Operation Sindoor, questioned the Center about the hideout of the terrorists involved in the Pahalgam attack. Kharge first said that I pay my tribute to those killed in the barbaric terrorist attack in Pahalgam. I also express my deep condolences to their families. I would like to say – Mehndi hands have raised the dead body of the husband, the helpless children have lost the life of the father, we have seen the helpless helpless woman, the helpless woman, we have seen our loved ones dying in the Pahalgam Valley.

The Congress President said that with the whole country and this House, I (in Pahalgam) condemn the barbaric attacks and Pakistan’s continuous support to terrorists. He said that we had condemned Pakistan even earlier, will still do today and if we continue to do the same tomorrow, we will continue to condemn it. But here we condemn him and you join their feast and hug them.
Kharge further said that Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and I had written to the Prime Minister demanded a special session of Parliament, but no response to the letter came. He said in a tone tone that our letters are dumped in the dustbin. They do not even read it. If there is so much ego, then one day people who break your ego will definitely come. This is not right. You do not even have time to write one or two sentences. People have time to hug.
The Leader of the Opposition said that we had gone to the meeting (all -party), but you went to Bihar for campaigning. Is this your patriotism? … They should have come to the House today and have heard us. If you do not have the ability to hear, then you are not fit to hold that position. He said that Uri and Pathankot terror attacks in 2016, Pulwama in 2019 and now in 2025 Pahalgam. It is clear from all these incidents that the intelligence system and national security are constantly lapse. I want to ask the Home Minister, who is responsible for this? … What did you do to rectify this mistake? I want to ask the Home Minister who is responsible for this? If you are responsible then leave your post. If not, what action are the Prime Minister taking?

Kharge said that PM Modi had canceled his tour three days before the Pahalgam attack. I had sought an answer earlier as well, but no response was received. I am still asking if the government was already apprehensive of an attack? If yes, why did you let tourists go there? He said that the government should accept ‘lapse’ and ‘failure’ in stopping terrorist attacks, fixed accountability, and who is responsible for the Pahalgam attack; Whatever it is, he should resign.
