Senior Congress leader draws flak after linking the April 22 Pahalgam attack to the historical wounds of Partition.
Following Robert Vadra바카라s contentious remarks, senior Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar has ignited another political firestorm 바카라 this time over the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam that claimed the lives of 26 tourists. Aiyar described the attack as a reflection of the "unresolved questions of Partition."
In its aftermath, security forces launched extensive operations throughout Jammu and Kashmir in pursuit of the perpetrators.
Speaking at the India International Centre, Aiyar reflected on the ideological rift that led to Partition. 바카라Many people nearly prevented it, but Partition occurred due to fundamental differences in values and visions for India바카라s identity and civilization between leaders like Gandhi and Nehru on one side, and Jinnah and others who didn바카라t align with Jinnah바카라s views, on the other,바카라 he said.
He continued, 바카라Partition happened, and we continue to live with its consequences. But must we continue like this? Isn바카라t the horror we witnessed in Pahalgam on April 22 a tragic manifestation of those unresolved issues?바카라
BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla swiftly condemned Aiyar바카라s remarks, accusing the Congress of once again defending Pakistan and attempting to rationalize terrorism on Indian soil.
바카라In its latest attempt, Congress is offering a bizarre justification for the Pahalgam attack, almost giving Pakistan a clean chit,바카라 said Poonawalla in a strongly worded video response. He also questioned whether Aiyar바카라s comments indirectly blamed Nehru for the tragedy, adding, 바카라Nehru and Jinnah were leading figures during Partition. Are you holding Nehru responsible now?바카라
