Attacking the Government, Congress MP Deepender Singh Hooda demanded that India should not play cricket with Pakistan at a time when Operation Sindoor is going on.

He also demanded modernisation of Indian defence forces and increase in the defence budget. He said that US President Donald Trump claimed “28 times” that he brokered peace between India and Pakistan, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi has never contradicted him.

The government has to decide its relationship with the US, he said, adding: “Donald ko chup karao, Donald ka muh band karao ya phir Hindustan mein McDonald’s ko band karao. (Silence Donald, shut Donald’s mouth, or shut down McDonald’s in India). : that either India should ask Trump to stop speaking on India-Pakistan issues or the government should shut McDonald’s in India.”

The Rohtak MP added that the government should disclose the terms of ceasefire with Pakistan. He also said no country has condemned Pakistan and the Indian government also failed to stop loans granted to Pakistan by IMF and ADB.

During the debate, J&K National Conference MP Mian Altaf Ahmad demanded the government take notice of “innocent killings” in police firing in the UT and release “innocent people” arrested after the Pahalgam attack.

Ahmad said he belongs to the area where the attack was carried out. “Home Minister (Amit Shah) is here and I am sure that all the murderers will be punished. Our demand to you is to give stringent punishment to them,” he said.

Taking on the government, NC’s Srinagar MP Ruhullah Mehdi said that after the Pahalgam incident, “a war had started with the people of Kashmir too”. He said people from J&K were “defamed” on social media so much that more than 11 cases of violence against them took place in UP, Uttarakhand, Delhi, Punjab and Himachal Pradesh. —With PTI Inputs
