Mahadangal: BJP vs Congress Clash Over Rafale, Army, and National Security Accountability | ABP NEWS

In a heated debate on ABP News' Mahadangal, BJP spokesperson Prem Shukla and Congress spokesperson Charan Singh Sapra fiercely clashed over allegations concerning a Rafale jet being shot down by Pakistan. Prem Shukla firmly denied the claims, stating that if such an incident had occurred, visual evidence would have surfaced by now due to widespread mobile access. He accused Congress, especially Rahul Gandhi, of being "anti-national" for questioning the military's credibility and past surgical strikes. On the other hand, Charan Singh Sapra questioned why the BJP government had not clarified the matter publicly. He emphasized that Congress had always supported the government on national security but demanded transparency. Sapra cited statements from BJP leaders like Subramanian Swamy, who reportedly mentioned five Rafales being lost. He challenged BJP’s silence, urging accountability, especially after attacks like the one in Pahalgam. The debate further intensified with references to controversial remarks by BJP leaders and the role of ministers like Jaishankar, who allegedly informed Pakistan before airstrikes. While Shukla insisted that such matters were under the army’s purview and not political, Sapra argued that the government must take responsibility and communicate clearly with the public.
