BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi strongly criticised Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge`s remarks on Operation Sindoor, calling his statement dismissive and disrespectful toward the bravery of the Indian Army. Trivedi condemned Kharge’s characterization of the operation as a "small incident," stating that such remarks insult the sacrifices of soldiers and hurt the sentiments of 140 crore Indians. He also linked Kharge’s comments to a pattern of allegedly anti-national rhetoric from Congress and its allies, referencing past remarks by Rahul Gandhi. Trivedi argued that these are not isolated incidents but part of a deliberate, ideologically driven strategy by the Congress-led INDI alliance, which he described as a “well-planned conspiracy.” He concluded by asserting that merely adopting the name "INDIA" does not make a party or alliance genuinely patriotic.
