Changing tactics
The Congress, once the unchallenged political powerhouse of India, has struggled in recent years to regain its footing in the face of electoral setbacks and an increasingly assertive BJP.
The Congress party has demanded a stern action from the Centre after the news of the incident of Indo-China Army conflict in Arunachal Pradesh spread like wildfire across the nation on Monday.
The oppostion party said, “There is news of a clash between the soldiers of India and China in Tawang sector of Arunachal Pradesh. The time has come for the government to leave its wavering attitude and explain to China in a stern tone that its act will not be tolerated.”
IMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi alleged the silence of the Government in the Parliament on Monday. He tweeted, “The reports coming from Arunachal Pradesh are worrying and alarming. A major clash took place between Indian and Chinese soldiers and the government has kept the country in the dark for days. Why was the Parliament not informed, when it is in session?”
“The details of the incident are sketchy. What was the cause of the clash? Were shots fired or was it like Galwan? How many soldiers have been injured? What is their condition? Why can’t the Parliament extend their public support to the soldiers to send a strong message to China?” he questioned.
On the other hand, Delhi Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal, prayed for the speedy recovery of injured Indian soldiers.
Notably, six Indian army jawans, guarding the Indo-China border in Arunachal Pradesh sustained injury as they countered around 300 Chinese counterparts in the Tawang sector on December 9.
