Rahul Gandhi slammed external affairs minister S Jaishankar for publicly admitting that the Centre had informed Pakistan of the action. Leader of the opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, on Saturday hit out at the Narendra Modi government for “informing” Pakistan about targeting terror infrastructure as part of Operation Sindoor, saying it was a crime and asking who had authorised it.
Rahul Gandhi slammed external affairs minister S Jaishankar for publicly admitting that the Centre had informed Pakistan of the action. He asked how many aircraft the Indian Air Force lost as a result of such information being shared with Islamabad.
“Informing Pakistan at the start of our attack was a crime. EAM has publicly admitted that the GOI did it. Who authorised it? How many aircraft did our air force lose as a result?” the Rae Bareli MP said in a post on X.
He also shared an undated video of the EAM purportedly saying that India had informed Pakistan of the action against terror infrastructure on its soil.
Did EAM S Jaishankar say that India informed Pakistan of Operation Sindoor?
In the video shared by Rahul Gandhi, EAM S Jaishankar can be heard saying that the government had sent a message to Pakistan saying that the strikes are not on the military and just on the terror infrastructure.
“At the start of the operation, we had sent a message to Pakistan, saying, ‘We are striking at terrorist infrastructure and we are not striking at the military. So the military has the option of standing out and not interfering in this process. They chose not to take that good advice,” the minister can be heard saying in the clip.
