Kharge said the party takes pride in the courage and commitment displayed by the armed forces. He saluted their bravery, discipline, and patriotism, adding that their response to terrorism through Operation Sindoor reflected India’s resolve.

Reiterating India’s clear national policy against terrorism originating from Pakistan and PoK, Kharge called for national unity in defending sovereignty and territorial integrity.

He recalled the long-standing readiness of Indian soldiers to lay down their lives for the country, stating that history has time and again shown their unwavering dedication to national unity and security.
