New Delhi : Deputy Leader of Congress in Lok Sabha, Gaurav Gogoi, has moved a notice to seek an adjournment motion in the House on Monday to discuss the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor during the Monsoon Session of the Parliament ,which begins today.
Giving a notice to the Secretary General of Lok Sabha, Gogoi wrote, "I seek to move an adjournment of the business of the House to discuss a matter of urgent national importance: the terror attack in Pahalgam, India's military response through Operation Sindoor, and the political and diplomatic developments that followed."
He raised concerns over the alleged role of US President Donald Trump in the ceasefire during the Operation Sindoor. The Congress MP wrote, "First, the sudden announcement of a ceasefire after the operation without briefing Parliament- has created confusion about its terms, timing, and stakeholders. Second, the President of the United States made controversial claims suggesting the ceasefire was externally brokered and that he personally intervened with Pakistan's military leadership. These statements, if unchallenged, risk undermining India's sovereign standing in regional security."
"Third, the Chief of Defence Staff made public remarks on the nature and location of Operation Sindoor at an international forum, raising questions about the protocols governing strategic disclosures," the notice read.
