'Stick to Miss World photo ops, Revanth. National security isn't your ramp," it said, taking a dig at the Chief Minister.

The competition began amid heightened tensions between India and Pakistan soon after India's retaliatory 'Operation Sindoor' against Pakistan in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack, amid calls from the opposition to postpone it. 'Yeh jo Pakistan ke Babbar hain, woh Hindustan ke Gabbar hain'. Sambit Patra questioned Rahul Gandhi, Revanth Reddy and Jairam Ramesh over not asking Pakistan regarding how many of their airbases were destroyed or terrorists were killed. Patra further mentioned that in the present time, there are two factions in the Congress, one which supports Pakistan and another which wants to raise their voice but cannot do it because of Rahul Gandhi. The BJP MP further stated that Congress's 'Jai Hind Yatra' looks like 'Pakistan Hind Yatra'. 'Rahul Gandhi, Jairam Ramesh, and Revanth Reddy are asking how many Rafales were shot down. 'Yeh jo Pakistan ke Babbar hain, woh Hindustan ke Gabbar hain'. Rahul Gandhi did not ask how many Pakistani airbases were destroyed, how many terrorists were killed; rather, he only asked how many Indian planes were shot down," Patra said. 'Today, there are two factions in Congress – one which supports Pakistan and the other which wants to raise a voice for the country but is unable to do so because of you. Your 'Jai Hind Yatra' looks like 'Pakistan's Hind Yatra' and you should stop this yatra and hold a joint press conference with Pakistan", Sambit Patra said. The BJP MP also attacked Jairam Ramesh for his remarks over the multi-party delegation and said that he 'equated terrorists with MPs". The BJP leader asserted that the MPs did not go on a tour, they went to strongly represent India's side in front of the whole world. 'Jairam Ramesh, who is the right-hand of the Gandhi family, gives a statement, and he says in his statement that terrorists are roaming around, MPs are also roaming around. You have equated terrorists with MPs. MPs did not go on a tour, they went to strongly present India's side in the world, and your MPs are also included in it", Sambit Patra added. He also accused he previous UPA government of calling terrorists to the PMO and mentioned that the Indian Armed Forces destroyed nine Pakistan terror hideouts, for which the satellite images were also shown regarding the operation. 'There was a time when terrorists were called to the PMO. We should also remember the day when Sonia ji cried after seeing the bodies of terrorists. The Indian Army destroyed nine terrorist hideouts. Satellite pictures were shown. DGMO presented all the facts", Sambit Patra said. Earlier on Thursday, Revanth Reddy said that Rahul Gandhi and party President Mallikarjun Kharge attended the all-party meeting and extended their full support to the Centre and made it clear that India should fight against Pakistan to merge the PoK (Pakistan Occupied Kashmir) with India.

He objected to calling off the 'war' by the Modi government at the behest of US President Donald Trump's orders. 'Pakistan has downed Rafale fighter jets, which were brought by PM Modi, when asked how many downed? There's no discussion. PM Modi, who purchased war fighter jets from another country, should answer how many Rafale jets have been downed by Pakistan. You have favoured thousands of crores worth of contracts to people who are close to you and purchased Rafale jets, but why did they get destroyed? You should answer this," said Reddy. Reddy reiterated that the Congress and the Gandhi family have a history of sacrificing their lives for the country. top videos View all Calling Prime Minister Narendra Modi a spent force, the Chief Minister appealed to the party leaders and workers to strive hard and not relax until Rahul Gandhi became Prime Minister.

Terrorists and their masters in Pak paid a heavy price, says Kishan Reddy
Hyderabad: G Kishan Reddy, Operation Sindoor, Terrorism in India, Mann Ki Baat, BJP Telangana, Modi government The government led by Prime Minister Modi has now put an end to the policy of paying homage with roses and lighting candles when the people of the country lose their lives in terrorist attacks and has shown them (Pakistan terrorists) that if they attack, they will have to pay a heavy price for it, said Union Minister for Coal and Mines and Telangana BJP President G Kishan Reddy. Speaking after watching Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 122nd episode of Mann Ki Baat along with people, BJP leaders and workers in the Sanatnagar constituency on Sunday, he urged everyone to watch the programme and appealed to put into practice important issues like cleanliness, yoga and diabetes that the Prime Minister spoke about. He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Mann Ki Baat' is meant to awaken people, unite them and create a healthy society. Union Minister Kishan Reddy urged everyone to follow the suggestions and advice given by the Prime Minister on the key issues relating to health for building a healthy nation. Regarding Operation Sindoor, Kishan Reddy said that it is a strong message by India to Pakistan which has been spreading terrorism against India for the last 46 years with many attacks like the ones at Lumbini Park, Gokul Chat, Sai Baba Temple, Dil Sukh Nagar blasts, Mumbai train attacks, Parliament attacks and many others. He said 'During these attacks, people used to pay homage and make peace. But after the Modi government came to power, he gave a strong message that terrorism and the country that nurtures terrorism will be taught a lesson – through the Pathankot – surgical strike, Pulwama – air strike, Pahalgam – Operation Sindoor.' He said that it is at such times that the entire country needs to stand united, putting aside parties, castes, religions, communities and colours. Operation Sindoor had destroyed nine terror camps in Pakistani territory. He said that the role of Indian soldiers was crucial in this. The Union Minister said that it is sad that a soldier from Visakhapatnam also lost his life in this operation. He said that there is a great need for everyone to participate in the Tiranga Yatras and rallies being organised at such times and show the unity of the country. The State BJP chief pointed out that the Pahalgam attack exposed the brutality of the terror outfits and their masters in Pakistan. He said, 'A father was killed in front of his children and a husband in front of his wife. Besides, Hindus were identified and killed and the kin of the victims were asked to go and tell Modi.' He said that India has given a strong response to their attacks through Operation Sindoor. 'From now on, every terrorist attack that takes place in India will be responded to and Pakistan will be shown its place,' he informed.

BJP tears Rahul's charges to shreds
Hyderabad: The BJP Telangana has strongly condemned Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi for his recent unfounded accusations made during the Bharat Summit held on Saturday. Rahul Gandhi claimed that opposition voices are being 'trapped and isolated' under the BJP-led NDA government at the Centre. In a sharp response, BJP State chief spokesperson and media in-charge NV Subhash stated that Rahul Gandhi's remarks demonstrate a lack of understanding of democratic values and indicate a failure to reflect on the Congress party's own legacy in Parliament. 'Why should you feel isolated? What prompted these feelings? Isn't it time for you, your party, and your allies to introspect on your actions and your commitment to the nation's best interests', he asked. Subhash reminded Rahul Gandhi of the responsible conduct of BJP leaders such as the late Atal Bihari Vajpayee, LK Advani, Arun Jaitley, and Sushma Swaraj, who, even while in opposition, upheld the dignity of Parliament and prioritised national interests. He cited Vajpayee's commendation of then-Prime Minister Indira Gandhi during the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War as a testament to putting the nation's interests above politics. Contrasting that mature leadership with today's Congress approach, Subhash pointed out that Rahul Gandhi must consider why his party, despite participating in all-party meetings, continues to enable individuals like Robert Vadra, who recently made insensitive remarks following the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. 'At a time when the nation is mourning the loss of 26 innocent lives, Vadra's comments linking the tragedy to restrictions on street prayers are not only irresponsible but also reprehensible,' Subhash said. The BJP leader further questioned the appropriateness of the state government hosting investment summits amid national grief following such a horrific terror attack. Rahul Gandhi's claims that Congress is unable to 'operate' due to an atmosphere of 'fear, anger, and hatred' are merely attempts to divert attention from the Congress party's own failures, Subhash asserted. 'Rather than concocting narratives of victimhood, the Congress party must reflect on its declining credibility and its disconnection from the aspirations of New India,' he added. The BJP strongly reiterated its commitment to dialogue, consensus-building, and safeguarding the democratic fabric of the nation while decisively acting against forces that threaten India's unity and security.

Flush out illegal immigrants from Hyd'bad, demands BJP
Hyderabad: BJP Telangana pitched for immediate identification of Pakistani and Bangladeshi nationals in the state capital and urged to deport them against the backdrop of the Pahalgam terror attack. Addressing the media on Thursday, State BJP vice-president and former MLA Dr NVSS Prabhakar demanded the State government to direct the police and give them a free hand to evict foreign nationals allegedly living beyond the expiry of their visas, and Bangladeshi citizens illegally entering the country and living in the Old City. He alleged that the AIMIM has been in alliance with the BRS party for some time. Now it is working with the Congress, which is in power. It is seen that the police are rendered helpless to take stringent action in many cases to carry out raids and arrest the Pakistani and Bangladeshi nationals, he added. The BJP leader recalled that the NIA and IB have issued warnings on many occasions that there are sleeper cells in Hyderabad. 'As an immediate precautionary measure, we demand the state government to demolish the sleeper cells illegally residing in the Old City of Hyderabad,' he demanded. He said the lesson that needs to be learnt from the Pahalgam attack is that political and opportunistic alliances should not put the lives of people at risk. 'The Pahalgam terror incident has shaken the country. At this juncture, the central government has announced some tough decisions. The people of India believe that the organisations, individuals and neighboring countries that instigated terrorism will definitely have to pay the price,' he said.
