Rajya Sabha MP Kartikeya Sharma participated in the Operation Sindoor debate which happened in the Rajya Sabha today (July 30, 2025, Wednesday). The MP started his speech by expressing condolences for the families of the victims killed in the Pahalgam attack. The MP then said that the purpose of the debate is not to remind the opposition about the grand success of Operation Sindoor.
According to him, the purpose is to showcase the capabilities of the Indian army in front of India. Also, Mr Sharma added that everyone will unitedly keep forward India’s viewpoint, irrespective of their political affiliation, i.e.- ruling and the opposition.
Debate is not between India and NDA- MP Kartikeya Sharma
According to Mr Sharma, this debate is not between INDIA alliance and NDA. He said that this is a debate between valour and terror and India and Pakistan. Mr Sharma highlighted that how India has left no stone unturned to maintain a harmonious bond with Pakistan.
However, as per the MP, Pakistan has not reciprocated the similar reaction. He said that “Ahimsa Parmo Dharma Dharma Himsa Tathaiva Cha” (a Sanskrit phrase that translates to “Non-violence is the highest dharma (duty/religion) and violence in the service of dharma is also dharma”) is mentioned in our scriptures.
The MP said, “Operation Sindoor kewal ek sainya operation nahi tha. Yeh ek sabhya rashtra ki chetaavni thi ki humaarey desh mein bhagwan Buddha ka bhi vaas hota hain aur bhagwan Parshuram ji ka bhi. Yeh unki bhumi bhi hai aur sannyam hi humaara sanskaar hain lekin agar koi humaari shakti ko chunauti dega to usko iski badi keemat chukani padhegi.” (Operation Sindoor was not only a military operation but the warning of a civilized nation that both Lord Buddha and Lord Parshuram have been born in our country. Patience is our virtue but if someone will challenge our power, then they will have to pay for it.)
