A day after Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar said that India should "respect Pakistan as they have atom bomb," Telangana CM Revanth Reddy too, added to the boiling controversy surrounding Congress and Pakistan, casting doubts if the surgical strike after the Pulwama attack even took place or not back in 2019. In response to these remarks by the Telangana CM, Bharatiya Janata Party's national spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi questioned Reddy "Does he love Pakistan so much that he is unable to see and listen what their minister has said?"

Commenting on the remarks by the Telangana CM, Trivedi said: "He (Revanth Reddy) must remember that 'Fawad Chaudhary' who is showering support on his (Revanth Reddy) biggest leader Rahul Gandhi has said it in Pakistan's national assembly as the minister of Imran Khan govt that 'humne Pulwama tak ghus ke mara hai'." He also took a jibe at Reddy for either having no knowledge about it or ignoring what the Pakistani minister said due to his love for the neighbouring nation.

Reddy also slammed the Intelligence Bureau, flagging its failure to prevent the Pulwama attack, which claimed the lives of over 40 CRPF personnel.

What Telangana CM Revanth Reddy Said About Pulwama Attack

Earlier today, Revanth Reddy had launched scathing attacks at PM Modi for attempting to get political benefit from the surgical strike after Pulwama, saying: "For Modi, everything is politics, everything is about winning elections. So, Modi’s thinking is not right for the country. So, the country needs to be without BJP, without Modi now. They answer everything with ‘Jai Sri Ram’. The Pulwama incident is a classic example. They have failed. What is the IB doing? What is the Intelligence network doing? Modi ji attempted political benefit from the surgical strike after Pulwama incident."

“Nobody knows to date if a surgical strike actually took place. So, internal security is Congress’ responsibility. We are not ready to leave the country in just anyone’s hands,” he added, while raising doubts over the Balakot airstrike.
