Congress slams Amit Shah on Nehru remarks, says, ‘Home Minister learns his history from a middleman-turned-politician'
In a post on X, Khera said, "Home Minister learns his history from a middleman turned politician. Here is the truth of Nehru ji and the so called US offer to India of UNSC membership. In September 1955, Nehru stated categorically in the Lok Sabha: 'There has been no offer, formal or informal, of this kind… The composition of the Security Council is prescribed by the UN Charter, according to which certain specified nations have permanent seats. No change or addition can be made to this without an amendment of the Charter.'
Earlier in the day, Shah said, 'Today, China is in the UN Security Council, and India is not. Modi ji is trying his best to get India to become a part of the UN Security Council.'
He further noted, 'Jawaharlal Nehru's stand is responsible for this...When our jawans were facing Chinese soldiers in Doklam, Rahul Gandhi was holding a meeting with the Chinese ambassador...This love for China has passed down three generations from Jawaharlal Nehru, Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi…'
Shah criticised the Congress party, stating, 'Yesterday, they were questioning why there was no war... Today, PoK exists only because of Jawaharlal Nehru.'
'In 1960, they gave 80% of the Indus waters to Pakistan....In 1971, during the Simla Agreement, they (Congress) forgot about PoK. If they had taken PoK then, we would not have to carry out attacks on camps there now,' the BJP leader added.
Shah informed that those who killed our citizens in the ghastly Pahalgam terror attack have been killed.
"In a joint Operation Mahadev, the Indian Army, CRPF, and J&K Police have neutralised three terrorists who were involved in the Pahalgam terror attack," Shah said while addressing the lower house of Parliament.
"Innocent civilians were killed in front of their families by asking their religion. I condemn this barbaric act. I express my sympathies to the families who lost their loved ones," he said.
On Monday, the three terrorists were killed in Operation Mahadev in an intense firefight with security forces in the Harwan area near Dachigam National Park of Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir.

Oppn corners govt over patta promise to tribals; Let's sit & sort it out, says CM
Bhopal: Participating in the debate over a call attention motion moved by Leader of Opposition in the state assembly Umang Singhar seeking to draw attention of the state govt towards large-scale rejection of applications for patta for land under Tribal Rights Act, 2006, by tribals, CM Mohan Yadav said that he was prepared to sit with the Opposition MLAs to sort out the issue. Raising the issue, Singhar said that more than 2.3 lakh applications from tribals for patta on the land of their habitation has been rejected in MP and the state stands second in the entire country in rejecting the application for patta by the tribals. He cited the example of Nepanagar where application for patta from more than 3,000 tribals has been rejected and the forest staff was stopping them from farming on the land they have been in possession for years. Minister of state for forest, Dileep Ahirwal in his written reply to the call attention motion, said that under the Act, 2.3 lakh tribals, who were in possession of forest land before 2005, have been given ownership right over 3.7 lakh hectare forest land and it was not true that the forest department was indiscriminately rejecting the claim of tribals over land of their habitation. CM Yadav said that the state government proposes to make the data of tribals in possession of forest land before 2005 available online. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like If you have a mouse, play this game for 1 minute Navy Quest Undo Senior Congress MLA Ajay Singh said that the state govt should carry out a survey again to verify claims of 68,000 claims, which have been rejected.
