New Delhi, July 23 (NationPress) Amidst the intensifying standoff between the government and the Opposition, Parliament is preparing for a discussion on Operation Sindoor—the Indian military operations that dismantled terror infrastructure within Pakistan—scheduled for next week on Tuesday. Reports indicate that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to make a significant intervention during the extensive debate in the Rajya Sabha on July 29.
The Business Advisory Committee (BAC) has allocated 16 hours and 9 hours for both Houses to thoroughly discuss Operation Sindoor.
The Congress-led Opposition is advocating for a debate on various pressing issues, including the Pahalgam terror attack, Operation Sindoor, Trump’s claims regarding ceasefire, and the SIR drive in Bihar. Several Opposition parties have submitted multiple adjournment notices in Parliament, demanding an immediate discussion in the presence of PM Modi.
They aim to put the Centre on the back foot by raising concerns regarding security lapses in Pahalgam, the downing of military jets during Operation Sindoor, and the alleged interference of US President in India-Pakistan relations. The Centre has expressed its readiness for a discussion on all matters, hoping to counter the Opposition's narrative, especially given that India's decisive actions against Pakistan’s provocations are likely to bolster its stance.
Indeed, PM Modi has already set a victorious tone for the Monsoon Session of Parliament, referring to it as a 'Vijay Utsav' (victory celebration) for the nation—a clear nod to Operation Sindoor and a testament to the strength and precision of the Indian military.
The initial days of the Monsoon Session have been marked by chaos, disruptions, and sloganeering from Opposition members, leading to a wash-out of proceedings.
The upcoming marathon debate on Operation Sindoor on July 29 is expected to feature intense exchanges in the Upper House, with the Opposition prepared with facts and figures to highlight the government's follies, while the latter is ready to counter with its own defenses.
