Karnataka BJP chief makes explosive remark on Congress and Operation Sindoor, questions party's track record

Karnataka BJP on Tuesday slammed Congress leaders for their remarks on the ceasefire and questioned their track record while in power.

“Indian missiles seem to have hurt the Congress leaders more than the Pakistanis!” alleged BJP state president B.Y. Vijayendra, as he exposed what he felt was the irony behind Congress' statements being used in the official briefings of the Pakistani military.

The BJP leader stated that the Congress leaders, in their relentless campaign against the Prime Minister, were disregarding the unparalleled bravery and strategic brilliance displayed by the Indian armed forces.

“Given the Congress party’s historically soft stance on Pakistan, what exactly do they want to achieve by undermining our armed forces’ unequivocal victory? Do they even realize the magnitude of our achievements?” asked the Shikaripura MLA.

Stating that Operation Sindoor was a resounding success, Vijayendra went on list 8 high-value terrorist targets that had been eliminated as a result, adding that all of them were designated terrorists that were blacklisted by India, the US, and the UN.

The BJP leader also asserted that the Indian forces had “disabled” 11 Pakistan Air Force bases, rendering them inoperable, which was what forced Pakistan to desperately seek a ceasefire.

“Modi ji’s leadership was clear and resolute when he said blood and water cannot flow together. His firm stance led to the continued suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, a move that finally put India’s interests first,” he explained.

 

'Tiranga Yatra' in Karnataka from May 15-18

Karnataka BJP will conduct a ‘Tiranga Yatra’ (flag march) in Bengaluru and other major cities in the state on May 15. The yatra in Bengaluru will begin from Shirur Park in Hubli till 18th Cross on Sampige Road in Malleswaram. The yatra will be held across BJP's district centres on May 16 and 17, and at taluk centres from May 18 to 23. 

“There will be no party symbols, only the national flag. It is every Indian’s duty to say we stand with our soldiers. Over 100 terrorists have been killed, training camps destroyed, and Pakistan has been brought to the point of pleading to stop the war. The Indian Army has shown what happens when the enemy lays his hand on the Sindoor of Indian women,” said Ashoka, urging citizens to join the yatra in large numbers.
