"Opposition has nothing to say, questioned surgical strikes": MoS Defence Sanjay Seth - World News Network

Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], May 14 (ANI): Minister of State (MoS) for Defence Sanjay Seth on Wednesday lashed out at the opposition for not trusting the judiciary and the institutions established under the constitution of the country.
Seth, while participating in the ‘Tiranga Yatra’ in Ranchi, said that the opposition even questioned the surgical strikes which were conducted by the armed forces.
“The opposition has nothing to say. The prince of opposition always says negative things about India whenever he goes abroad. He does not trust the judicial system, the Election Commission, EVM, ED, CBI…He also raised questions on the surgical strike. He even said many things about this operation (Operation Sindoor),” Seth told ANI.
Seth further stated that the people of the country were raising slogans in appreciation of the Tiranga Yatra and saluting the Indian army.
“The people of India are proudly raising slogans like ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’ and saluting the indian army…That’s why today, a ‘Tiranga Yatra’ is being held in Ranchi, and I am here to participate in the yatra,” he added.
The ‘Tiranga Yatra’ was launched by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to honour the valour of the Indian soldiers and inform citizens about the success of Operation Sindoor.
The campaign kicked off in Delhi with a symbolic march featuring a 108-foot-tall national flag. The yatra began at Kartavya Path and will conclude at the National War Memorial, with thousands, including BJP workers, citizens, NGOS, RWAS, religious leaders, and social organisations gathered to pay tribute to soldiers and the armed forces.
India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 as a decisive military response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in which 26 people were killed.
Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the death of over 100 terrorists affiliated with terror outfits like the Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hizbul Mujahideen.
After the attack, Pakistan retaliated with cross-border shelling across the Line of Control and Jammu and Kashmir as well as attempted drone attacks along the border regions, following which India launched a coordinated attack and damaged radar infrastructure, communication centres and airfields across 11 airbases in Pakistan.
After this, on May 10, an understanding of the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan was announced. (ANI)
