The controversial comments made by Charanjit Singh Channi have sparked outrage and condemnation from various quarters. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has accused him of being part of the “Saboot Gang,” a term used to describe those who question the actions of the Indian armed forces without any evidence.
BJP spokespersons have called Channi a “traitor” for his remarks, stating that at a time when the nation is mourning the loss of innocent lives in the Pahalgam terror attack, it is irresponsible for a senior leader like Channi to cast doubt on the valiant efforts of the Indian forces.
The BJP has demanded an apology from Channi for his comments and has called on the Congress party to clarify its stance on the issue. The party has also called for unity among all political parties in the country in the fight against terrorism.
Meanwhile, other opposition leaders have also criticized Channi for his remarks. Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut said that questioning the surgical strikes is an insult to the Indian armed forces and the sacrifices they have made for the country. He called on Channi to retract his statement and show solidarity with the armed forces.
The controversy surrounding Charanjit Singh Channi’s comments comes at a time when tensions are running high between India and Pakistan. The Indian armed forces have been put on high alert in response to the Pahalgam terror attack, and the government has vowed to take decisive action against those responsible.
In this critical moment, it is essential for political leaders to show unity and support for the armed forces, rather than casting doubt on their actions. The nation stands united in its resolve to combat terrorism and protect its citizens, and divisive statements like those made by Charanjit Singh Channi only serve to weaken that resolve.
