Breaking News: Channi Takes U-Turn on Surgical Strike Remarks, Says No Proof Is Needed | ABP NEWS

Congress MP Charanjit Singh Channi has taken a U-turn after sparking controversy over his remarks questioning the surgical strikes carried out by the Indian Army. Earlier, Channi had claimed that there was no visible evidence of any surgical strike, saying, “Where did it happen? I didn’t see anything.” His statement drew heavy criticism from the BJP, accusing Congress of demoralizing the armed forces. However, amid growing backlash, Channi clarified his stance, stating that surgical strikes do not require proof and no one demands evidence of such operations. He emphasized that he never meant to deny the strike, but merely raised questions. The Congress party, meanwhile, has instructed its leaders to refrain from making statements that go against the party line, especially on issues of national unity. Despite this, Channi's initial comments gave BJP leaders an opportunity to attack the Congress. Realizing the controversy, Channi retracted his previous statement to avoid further escalation
