‘When Ravan crossed the Laxman Rekha…': Kiren Rijiju on Operation Sindoor ahead of 16 hour debate in Lok Sabha

Indian Express16 hours ago
With the Lok Sabha set to take up a 16-hour discussion on Operation Sindoor, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju Monday took to X to kickstart the day and wrote: 'when Pakistan crossed the red lines drawn by India, terror camps faced the fire.' The Monsoon session enters its second week following a week marked by repeated adjournments.
'Discussion on #OperationSindoor to begin today… When Ravan crossed the Laxman Rekha, Lanka burned. When Pakistan crossed the red lines drawn by India, terrorist camps faced the fire,' Rijiju's post read.
Discussion on #OperationSindoor to begin today…
When Ravan crossed the Laxman Rekha, Lanka burned. When Pakistan crossed the red lines drawn by India, terrorist camps faced the fire!

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh is set to initiate the 'special discussion on India's strong, successful and decisive 'Operation Sindoor' in response to the terror attack in Pahalgam', PTI reported
The opposition is expected to corner the government over US President Donald Trump's '26 claims' that he mediated to avert a nuclear war between India and Pakistan, and got them to agree on a 'ceasefire'. Trump's remarks included claims that he stopped Operation Sindoor by threatening to cut off trade with India.
The Congress, on Saturday, said the debate was a long time coming, but 'better late than never'.
The Pahalgam terror attack took place on April 22, but the terrorists directly responsible have still not been brought to justice, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said on Saturday.
India has made it clear that the cessation of firing and military activity targeted at Pakistan was paused after 'direct contact' between the directors general of military operations (DGMOs) of both nations, at the instance of Islamabad.

Shashi Tharoor May Keep 'Maunvrat' During Op Sindoor Debate. Rift With Cong or Strategic Silence? Will Shashi Tharoor speak in Parliament during the Operation Sindoor, Pahalgam attack discussion? The Congress MP triggered more rumours by saying he will maintain 'maunvrat', or silence, in Parliament. As the Lok Sabha debates Operation Sindoor and the Pahalgam terror attack, Tharoor, known for backing the Centre's muscular foreign policy, has chosen a vow of silence. Sources say the Congress high command reached out to him to speak, but he refused. Is it political defiance? Or a quiet protest against a party that's increasingly uncomfortable with his support for PM Modi's stand on Pakistan? Tharoor was earlier picked to lead an all-party delegation on Operation Sindoor and faced heat from within Congress ever since. His refusal to toe the party line, and praise for India's military, is adding to speculation about a growing rift.#shashitharoor #operationsindoor #maunvrat #congressrift #modiforeignpolicy #parliamentdebate #indiafirst #pahalgamattack #bjpvscongress #tharoorsilence #nationalsecurity #rahulgandhi #pmmodi #indianpolitics #toi #toibharat #bharat #trending #breakingnews #indianews 28.7K views | 12 hours ago
