Op-Sindoor's Roar: Modi Govt's 16-Hour Parliament Masterclass Exposes Congress's Pakistan-Pampering DNA
A 16-Hour Ode to Bharat's Grit: The Pahalgam attack, orchestrated by Pakistan-backed terrorists, was a dagger to Bharat's heart. Operation Sindoor, the government's riposte, was a lightning bolt, obliterating seven of nine terror camps across the Line of Control in 22 blistering minutes. The Modi government, on July 29, turned a 16-hour debate in the monsoon session of Parliament into a fiery crucible of Bharat's resolve, defending Operation Sindoor with a ferocity that left the opposition in shambles. The session unmasked Congress's duplicity: they applauded Sindoor at an all-party meeting on May 8, only to nitpick in Parliament. The protracted debate session wasn't a bureaucratic slog— it was a stage for the Modi government to proclaim Bharat's rebirth as a fearless titan.
Rajnath Singh, with battle-hardened gravitas, thundered in the Rajya Sabha: 'Bharat is no longer a soft state. Every citizen is now a self-respecting citizen of a strong nation." His words ignited a fire in every Indian's heart, a vow that terror will find no quarter here. The marathon session was a deliberate flex of transparency. Raksha Mantri Singh dissected Sindoor's brilliance: precision strikes, indigenous drones that mocked Pakistan's creaky arsenal, and forensic evidence tying the terrorists to Pakistan's sinister web. 'Operation Sindoor was not just a military action but an effective and decisive demonstration of the government's responsibility towards India's sovereignty," he declared, silencing doubters with facts. The operation's crowning glory — Pakistan's surrender on May 10 after Indian forces pounded their airfields — was a geopolitical slap, laid bare for the nation to cheer.
He buttressed the narrative, swatting away US President Donald Trump's claim of brokering a ceasefire. 'No Modi-Trump talks occurred between April 22 and June 17," Jaishankar clarified, cementing Bharat's sovereign resolve.
Amit Shah's Verbal Firestorm: Witty, Satiating & Clinching
Amit Shah, the union Home Minister, tore into Congress's hypocrisy with ruthless precision, leaving it clutching at straws, if not crawling barefoot and that too rudderlessly. Confirming that the three terrorists — Suleiman, Afghan, and Jibran — neutralised in Operation Mahadev, a subset of Sindoor, were Pakistani nationals with voter IDs and Pakistan-sourced weapons, Shah scoffed at Congress's communal deflections: 'Don't get upset by looking at the religion of the terrorists killed." His verbal sledgehammer exposed Congress's obsession with muddying national security with irrelevant distractions, a tactic as tired as their rhetoric.
Hooda's Burger Blunder: Meme Gold
If the government was a juggernaut, Congress was a clown show, with Hooda as its bumbling ringmaster. His McDonald's gaffe – likening Sindoor's tactical pause to a fast-food deal – ignited a meme-storm on X. #HoodaMcDonalds and #BurgerCeasefire trended as youth pounced. One meme showed Hooda ordering a 'ceasefire combo with extra diplomacy," while another sneered, 'Hooda thinks geopolitics is a drive-thru order." Gaurav Gogoi's queries about Rafale losses fizzled against Singh's explanation that Sindoor prioritized terror hubs. Hooda's 'If Pakistan was on its knees, why stop?" ignored the strategic pause, earning more laughs than respect.
Congress's DNA: A Legacy of Appeasement
Congress's DNA reeks of mollycoddling enemies while defaming Bharat's own.
Chidambaram's clean chit to Pakistan for Pahalgam, claiming 'no evidence" of their role, echoes his 2010 'saffron terror" trope. Shah slammed it as 'questioning India's attack on terror facilities." Post-26/11, Congress granted Pakistan MFN status, a diplomatic olive branch to a nation that bled Mumbai. Contrast this with BJP's relentless ripostes: surgical strikes, Balakot, and Sindoor. Shivraj Patil, 26/11's Home Minister, peddled 'Hindutva terror," giving Pakistan a pass while vilifying Hindus. Digvijay Singh endorsed 26/11 RSS Ki Saazish (2010), claiming Hemant Karkare feared Hindu extremists – a debunked lie. Now, Vadra blames Pahalgam on 'Hindutva," a slur against the victims. This quartet – Chidambaram, Patil, Singh, and Vadra – exposes Congress's toxic brew of denialism and defamation.
Modi's Searing Assault on Congress
Prime Minister Modi, taking the floor, unleashed a blistering attack on Congress, exposing their flip-flopping and appeasement. 'Congress clapped for Sindoor in private but cries foul in public," he roared, mocking their 'crocodile tears" over the operation's pause. He tore into their historical softness on terror, citing their post-26/11 decision to grant Pakistan MFN status while Bharat mourned. 'When Mumbai bled, Congress offered Pakistan a trade bouquet; when Pahalgam wept, we delivered Sindoor's thunder," Modi declared, contrasting BJP's decisive strikes – surgical strikes (2016), Balakot (2019), and now Sindoor – with Congress's spinelessness. He ridiculed their 'Hindu terror" fantasies, slamming Vadra's 'vile" Pahalgam claim as 'an insult to the 26 martyrs." Modi's words weren't just a rebuke – they were a battle cry, rallying Bharat against an opposition that 'sells national pride for votes."
The Youth's Verdict: Memes Over Manifestos
Congress's gaffes, from Hooda's burger blunder to Vadra's Hindutva nonsense, have made them social media's punching bag. X users savaged them: one post mocked, 'Congress trades national security for meme stardom." Another captioned Hooda with a burger: 'When your terror policy is a Big Mac attack." The youth see Congress as a relic, peddling narratives that insult Bharat's resolve.
The 16-hour session showcased a New India – fearless, self-reliant, and lethal. Singh's vow – 'Those who dream to give India a thousand cuts must never forget that this is the New India led by PM Modi, which can go to any extent against terrorism" – set hearts ablaze. Amit Shah's facts-first approach, Rajnath Singh's iron-fist unwavering stand, and Modi's searing takedown kept the narrative ironclad, scaffolded by the other MPs and minister. Operation Sindoor, and the session that immortalized it, is a milestone in Bharat's ascent, while Congress, mired in its Pakistan-pampering DNA, sinks into irrelevance, one meme at a time.

Judges can bring ‘great deal' of experience to legislative bodies: former CJI Chandrachud
Judges can bring a 'great deal' of experience to legislative office, and a part of the reason why judges cannot take up appointments is because of a hype, said former Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud at an event in Mumbai. He further said that former judges can bring a lot to the table in places like tribunals. On the judicial independence of such appointments, he said that it was a combination of the Constitution, active participation of citizens in the adjudicatory process, the critique of an independent media, and civil society which is constantly keeping a watch, and how judges behave and perform. 'We have had some exceptional individuals who occupied those offices as well, people who have done remarkably well in those offices. In fact, I believe that there's a great deal of experience which judges can bring to, say, the legislative bodies,' he said while speaking at the launch of Congress leader Shashi Tharoor's book Our Living Constitution on Saturday (August 2, 2025). When Mr. Tharoor was asked about who would fill the vacant seat of Vice-President, he said it would probably be from the ruling coalition as they had the majority. 'Honestly, there's no clue. The government has given no clue. But the fact is that it will be somebody nominated by the ruling party because they have a comfortable majority. Unlike the President, where all the State assemblies also vote,' he said. The duo spoke about a range of other issues like One Nation One Election (ONOE) and reservation among other topics. The event was organised by India's International Movement to Unite Nations (IIMUN), an organisation that conducts MUNs and mock parliaments.
